Horch 853 Spezialroadster vers 1937

Châssis n° 853177

Moteur n° 851234

 

•Marque allemande de prestige

•L'une des 950 construites

•Entièrement restaurée par Horch Classic

•Boîte cinq rapports

 

August Horch, l'un des pères fondateurs de l'industrie automobile allemande, était né à Winningen en 1868 et, après des études techniques dans une école d'ingénieur, avait travaillé pour un constructeur de moteurs marins à Leipzig. Il dirigea ensuite l'usine de moteurs de Kral Benz à Mannheim, mais sa frustration devant l'approche conservatrice de son patron le poussa à chercher des fonds pour monter sa propre entreprise. Horch jugeait la « voiture sans chevaux » à moteur arrière de Benz archaïque et sa première voiture, en 1900, arborait un moteur bicylindre installé à l'avant et un arbre de transmission aux roues arrière, une première en Allemagne. Des modèles à moteur quatre et six cylindres suivirent et Horch devint incontournable dans les compétitions et les courses de côtes de l'époque, mais cette pratique l'amena par la suite à entrer en conflit avec sa direction et entraina son départ en 1909 pour fonder Audi.

 

En 1923, Horch embaucha Paul Daimler, le fils de Gottlieb, comme ingénieur en chef, la première voiture à porter sa griffe étant la 300. Elle était animée par un huit cylindres en ligne à double arbre à cames en tête de 3, 2 litres, un type de moteur qui allait avoir les faveurs de Horch tout au long des années 1920 et 1930. Après le départ de Daimler, Fritz Fiedler (qui allait ensuite s'illustrer chez BMW) prit sa succession et conçut une huit cylindres en ligne à simple arbre à cames – la Horch 450 – qui fut suivi par les modèles 600 et 670 à moteur V12 de 6 litres en 1931 et par la 830 B à moteur V8 de 3, 5 litres en 1933.

 

En 1932, la société fut intégrée à Auto Union qui réunissait Audi, DKW et Wanderer. Horch sortit une véritable pléthore de versions de ses modèles dans les années 1930, avec des choix incroyables de cylindrées, d'empattements et de styles de carrosseries, tous destinés au marché du luxe sur lequel Horch était le seul concurrent national sérieux face à Mercedes-Benz. La 853 de 4, 9 litres, dévoilée pour l'année-modèle 1936, était propulsée par un huit cylindres en ligne simple arbre reposant sur dix paliers, conçu par Fiedler et installé dans un robuste châssis doté d'une transmission à quatre rapports avec overdrive et de freins hydrauliques assistés. La 853/853a, un élégant cabriolet sportif, fut produite jusqu'à l'entrée en guerre, date à laquelle 950 de ces voitures très exclusives avaient été construites.

 

Après la seconde guerre, l'usine Horch de Zwickau se retrouva dans la partie est de l'Allemagne où elle fut utilisée pour la construction des utilitaires Trabant, une bien triste fin pour cette marque aristocratique qui avait figuré parmi les meilleures du monde.

 

Malheureusement la carrosserie d'origine de cette 853 a été perdue pendant la seconde guerre ou peu après. Selon les informations fournies par le vendeur, le dernier propriétaire de la voiture l'avait équipée d'une carrosserie pick up et l'avait utilisée pour transporter des denrées sur son exploitation agricole en Ukraine. On ne sait donc pas si elle avait reçu la carrosserie Sportcabriolet d'usine ou une carrosserie réalisée par un artisan indépendant à l'origine.

 

La voiture a été achetée en Ukraine en 2009 par Horch Classic qui a aussitôt entrepris une restauration de sept années qui a demandé des milliers d'heures de travail. Il a été décidé de construire une réplique de la légendaire carrosserie Spezialroadster Horch Classic a fait des recherches dans diverses archives (mais aussi dans des documentations privées) pour retrouver des photos d'usine d'époque.

 

Grâce à la longue expérience de Horch Classic, à la documentation photographique et aux gabarits maison, une forme en trois dimensions fut construite. On la recouvrit de tissu pour visualiser les lignes et les volumes de la carrosserie. De nombreuses modifications furent apportées à cette forme de départ, avant de trouver les bonnes proportions. C'est seulement à ce stade que l'on put commencer à construire la structure en bois de la carrosserie.

 

Des gabarits furent à nouveau utilisés pour reporter les volumes de la forme et réaliser la structure avec de nombreux essais pour ajuster et trouver les bonnes lignes. À l'aide d'un niveau laser, on a assemblé et collé les composants de la structure entre eux et on les a vissés au châssis. Puis, les panneaux métalliques de la carrosserie ont été fabriqués, ajustés et soudés ensembles. Le châssis Horch avait auparavant été nettoyé et l'épaisseur de son métal et son éventuelle corrosion vérifiées. Les parties trop corrodées ou jugées trop fines avaient été remplacées apprêtées puis recouvertes de plusieurs couches de peinture.

 

Dès le départ, on considéra de la plus haute importance, non seulement de trouver l'harmonie de couleurs parfaite entre la carrosserie et l'intérieur, mais aussi de trouver un aspect conforme à celui de l'époque pour l'ensemble de la voiture. En conséquence, une couleur de base gris métallisé fut donc choisie, changeant en fonction de l'éclairage, du gris métal pur à un gris avec une légère pointe de rouge. Pour accentuer les lignes fluides de la voiture, des filets furent tracés à la main sur les garde-boue, sur le capot, les portes et l'arrière de la carrosserie.

 

L'intérieur de la voiture a été tendu de velours noir de haute qualité avec un passepoil du même cuir rouge que les sièges. Le cuir des sièges a été choisi car son aspect ressemble à celui des cuirs utilisés à l'époque. Le logotype Horch a été brodé sur le dos des sièges avant et sur les contre-portes au fil noir. De gros efforts ont été consentis pour le ciel de capote en Alcantara.

 

Le tableau de bord, constitué d'une seule pièce de bois, a été plaqué de ronce du Canada, laquée et polie pour obtenir un effet miroir. Les boiseries intérieures ont un léger reflet rouge qui s'harmonise à merveille avec les couleurs de l'intérieur et de l'extérieur. Les écussons Horch, sur le radiateur et le coffre, ont été plaqués en or 24 carat par un joailler. Tous les chromes ont été préparés et rechromés ou ont été reconstruits et chromés quand c'était nécessaire.

 

Le moteur d'origine, les essieux avant et arrière, le différentiel, la boîte de vitesses et la direction ont été démontés et révisés quand cela était nécessaire. Le moteur a été entièrement démonté et toutes les pièces calibrées et vérifiées. De nouveaux roulements ont été montés, de nouveaux pistons installés, l'arbre à cames et les commandes de soupapes révisés. Des joints de soupapes neuf ont été montés et des joints modernes à lèvres d'étanchéité ont été montés sur le moteur, à l'avant et à l'arrière. Le vilebrequin et le volant moteur ont été équilibrés avec précision. Le moteur, essayé au banc pendant une vingtaine d'heure avant d'être réinstallé dans la voiture, tourne parfaitement avec douceur, tandis qu'une boîte a cinq rapports révisée vient augmenter le plaisir de conduite et permet de tenir une bonne vitesse de croisière à des régimes peu élevés. Un faisceau électrique neuf a été refait et recouvert de coton vernissé pour reproduire l'aspect d'époque. Il va sans dire que tous les éléments de sécurité des freins et de la direction ont été rénovés. Un système d'allumage additionnel a été installé.

 

La voiture est vendue avec un reportage photographique de la restauration, ses papiers d'immatriculation allemands et un contrôle technique (TüV) daté du 11 juillet 2014. Un grand nombre d'articles et de publications sur la marque accompagnent la voiture, ainsi que son manuel du propriétaire (copie), une liste des pièces détachées (copie), un atlas Horch des routes secondaires allemandes, Horch: Typen-Technik-Modelle de Peter Kirchberg et Jürgen Pönisch et The Coachwork of Erdmann & Rossi, Berlin de Rupert Stuhlemmer. Une plaque émaillé Horch Dienste, un thermomètre Horch et un parapluie Horch Classic font également partie du lot.

 

c.1937 Horch 853 Spezialroadster

Chassis no. 853177

Engine no. 851234

 

•Premier German marque

•One of only 950 made

•Fully restored by Horch Classic

•Five-speed gearbox

 

One of the founding fathers of the German automobile industry, August Horch was born in Winningen in 1868, and following an technical education at engineering school, worked for a marine engine manufacturer in Leipzig. His next job was managing Karl Benz's motor works at Mannheim, but frustration with his employer's conservative approach prompted Horch to seek financial backing for his own venture. Horch regarded Benz's rear-engined 'horseless carriages' as out-dated, and his first automobile of 1900 featured a front-mounted, twin-cylinder engine and shaft-driven rear axle, the first time this latter innovation had been seen in Germany. Larger four- and six-cylinder models followed, and Horch became active in the trials and competitions of the day, though ultimately this policy would bring August into conflict with his fellow directors and force his departure in 1909 to found Audi.

 

In 1923 Horch engaged Paul Daimler, son of Gottleib, as Chief Engineer, the first car to bear his stamp being the '300'. This was powered by a 3.2-litre, double-overhead-camshaft, straight eight engine, and power units of this type would be favoured by Horch throughout the 1920s and 1930s. After Daimler's departure Fritz Fiedler (later of BMW fame) took over, designing a single-overhead-cam straight-eight - the Horch 450 - which was followed by 6-litre V12-powered 600 and 670 models in 1931 and the 3.5-litre V8-engined 830B in 1933.

 

In 1932 the company became part of the Auto Union together with Audi, DKW and Wanderer. Horch produced a veritable plethora of model variations in the 1930s, ringing the changes on engine capacity, wheelbase and styles of coachwork, but all were aimed squarely at the prestige end of the market, where Horch was the only serious domestic rival to Mercedes-Benz. Introduced for the 1936 season, the 4.9-litre Type 853 was powered by a Fiedler-designed, SOHC, ten-bearing straight eight mounted in a solidly built chassis boasting a four-speed overdrive gearbox and servo-assisted hydraulic brakes. A stylish sports cabriolet, the 853/853a was produced up to the outbreak of war, by which time a mere 950 of these exclusive cars had been built.

 

After WW2, Horch's Zwickau factory ended up on the eastern side of the border where it would eventually be pressed into service manufacturing the utilitarian Trabant - a sad end to a once noble marque that had ranked among the very best.

 

Unfortunately, the original body of this Horch 853 was lost either during WW2 or soon after. According to information supplied by the vendor, this car's last owner had fitted a pick-up body, and used the car to transport materials on his farm in Ukraine; thus it was not possible to tell whether a factory Sportcabriolet or an independently coachbuilt body had been fitted originally.

 

The car was purchased in the Ukraine in 2009 by Horch Classic, which then embarked on a seven-year restoration that took thousands of working hours to complete. It was decided to build a replica body in the style of legendary Spezialroadster. Horch Classic researched in numerous archives (and also private sources) to find original factory photographs.

 

Utilising Horch Classic's long term experience, researched photographic documentation, and in-house made templates, a three-dimensional body buck was fabricated. This buck was then covered in fabric to create a first impression of the body's lines and proportions. Numerous changes had to be made to the original buck before the form and proportions were right; only then could the construction of the wooden body frame begin.

 

Templates were again used to transfer the buck's shape to the wooden frame, with lots of trial fittings until the right shape and form had been achieved. Using a laser spirit level, the frame components were then glued together and screwed onto the chassis. Then the individual components of the metal body were fabricated, measured again and welded together. The Horch chassis frame had already been cleaned, measured and the metal checked for thickness and corrosion. Parts of the frame which showed either too much corrosion or were deemed too thin were replaced and then primed and painted with several coats.

 

From the start it was considered very important, not only to achieve perfect harmony of the body colour and interior, but also to arrive at a period-correct look for the car as a result. Accordingly, a base colour of silver metallic was chosen, which changes under different lighting conditions from a pure silver to a silver with a slight red tinge. To emphasise the car's flowing lines, a coach line was applied by hand to the mudguards, bonnet, doors and the rear of the body.

 

The car's interior was clad in high quality black velour carpet, which was piped in the same red leather as was used for the seats. The leather for the seats itself was chosen for its period-authentic surface texture. The Horch logo has been stitched into the back of the front seats and the door cards with a black thread. A great deal of effort went into the Alcantara hood lining.

 

The dashboard, made from a single piece of wood, has been covered with Canadian burr veneer that has been lacquered and polished to provide a mirror-like finish. The interior woodwork also shows a slight red tinge, which harmonises beautifully with the interior and exterior colours. The Horch Logo on the radiator and the boot lid were plated with 24 carat gold by a jeweller. All chromed parts were either prepared and re-chromed, or where necessary newly fabricated and plated.

 

The original engine, front and rear axles, differential, gearbox and steering were dismantled, measured and overhauled where necessary. The engine was completely dismantled and all parts measured and checked. New bearings were fitted, new pistons installed, and the camshaft and valve gear overhauled. New seals were fitted to the valve guides, and modern radial oil seals fitted to the engine at front and rear. The crankshaft was finely balanced together with the flywheel. Dynamometer tested for some 20 hours before fitting to the car, the engine is reported to run very smoothly, while a comprehensively overhauled five-speed gearbox enhances the already pleasurable driving experience and helps to keep the engine revs low at cruising speeds. A new wiring loom has been made and covered with woven cotton to replicate the appearance of the original. It goes without saying that safety-critical components for the steering and hydraulic brakes were renewed also. An additional ignition system is fitted.

 

The car is offered with photographic documentation of the restoration; German registration papers; and an historic TüV dated 11.07.14. A quantity of marque-related literature comes with it to include an owner's manual (copy); spare parts list (copy); Horch B-Road Atlas Germany; 'Horch: Typen-Technik-Modelle' by Peter Kirchberg and Jürgen Pönisch; and 'The Coachwork of Erdmann & Rossi, Berlin' by Rupert Stuhlemmer. A 'Horch Dienste' advertising enamel sign; a Horch thermometer; and an umbrella with Horch Classic print are included in the sale.accompagnent la voiture, ainsi que son manuel du propriétaire (copie), une liste des pièces détachées (copie), un atlas Horch des routes secondaires allemandes, Horch: Typen-Technik-Modelle de Peter Kirchberg et Jürgen Pönisch et The Coachwork of Erdmann & Rossi, Berlin de Rupert Stuhlemmer.

Kurt Weiser is Professor in Ceramics at ASU. Follow link below.

In the hands of Kurt Weiser, (b. 1950) the centuries-old tradition of china paint on porcelain is given new life. Weiser’s sumptuous, provocative teapots and jars, resplendent with lush jungle scenes, can be both alluring and unsettling. Detailed depictions of tropical splendor become wayward reveries as radiant colors and subtle distortions transform classic porcelain vessels.

 

Weiser, trained in ceramics at the Kansas City Art Institute and the University of Michigan, originally worked in an abstract, non-representational style with minimal surface decoration. While director of the Archie Bray foundation in Helena, Montana from 1977-88, he began to feel limited by this approach and contemplated new ways of working. Around 1990, he took the first step towards his current style when he covered a porcelain teapot with intricate botanical imagery using black and white sgraffito. After making a series of visits to Thailand, where he was inspired by the region’s luxuriant, intensely colored flora and fauna, a black and white palette no longer satisfied him. Seeking to capture Thailand’s richness, he began to experiment with China paints. Soon his skill as a colorist became an indispensable element of his work.

 

With the introduction of color into his work, Weiser also began to indulge his narrative impulses by incorporating figurative elements, drawn both from fantasy and art history, into his jungle scenes. Weiser’s figures, often nude and distorted across the planes of his vessels, move through steamy, Eden-like landscapes, interacting with the natural world they encounter. Themes of lust, predation, scientific curiosities, and the vulnerability of both man and nature abound in these scenes, resonating curiously with the cultivated vessel forms and refined medium Weiser has chosen.

 

Although Weiser has worked in this style for more than ten years, his work continues to evolve. The technical challenge of the overglazing process he uses, which requires multiple firings for each vessel and careful attention to the order in which colors are applied, forces him to thoroughly consider each piece he creates. Through refining this method of working, he has learned to take full advantage of the three-dimensionality of his surfaces by extending his scenes to fully encompass each vessel. In his recent work, he says that the softened, amorphous forms of his vessels should blend with their seamlessly painted surfaces so that the pots fade from view and “the painting is the three dimensional reality” floating in space as would a dream or reverie. Whether Weiser’s work is interpreted as three-dimensional painting or sensuously decorated porcelain, the pots he creates are among the most vivid and decadent of modern ceramics, providing a distinctive contribution to the ever-expanding medium.

Ο Θεός ενσαρκώθηκε ως Παντοδύναμος Θεός, εκφράζοντας την αλήθεια για να κρίνει και να εξαγνίσει τον άνθρωπο.

 

Τώρα ο Θεός νίκησε τις δυνάμεις του Σατανά, κυριάρχησε και κέρδισε μια ομάδα ανθρώπων.

 

Υμνήστε τον Θεό, τον παντοδύναμο και σοφό, νίκησε τον Σατανά.

 

Υμνήστε τον Θεό, η δίκαια διάθεσή Του αποκαλύφθηκε πλήρως.

 

Ας υμνήσουμε τον Παντοδύναμο Θεό, τον αξιαγάπητο πρακτικό Θεό.

 

Υμνούμε τον Θεό, ταπεινό και κρυμμένο, είναι τόσο αξιαγάπητος!

 

Σε υμνούμε, Παντοδύναμε Θεέ (υμνούμε τον Θεό)! Όλοι ερχόμαστε για να Σε υμνήσουμε (να Σε υμνήσουμε)!

 

Σε υμνούμε, Παντοδύναμε Θεέ! Όλοι ερχόμαστε για να Σε υμνήσουμε!

 

Όλες οι χώρες υμνούν τον Παντοδύναμο Θεό, όλα τα έθνη κι οι λαοί υμνούν τον Παντοδύναμο Θεό.

 

Τραγουδήστε, χορέψτε χαρούμενα για να υμνήσετε τον Παντοδύναμο Θεό. Τα κύματα στη θάλασσα υμνούν τον Παντοδύναμο Θεό.

 

Τα πουλιά στον αέρα υμνούν τον Παντοδύναμο Θεό. Το σύμπαν υμνεί τον Παντοδύναμο Θεό.

 

Όλα τα δημιουργήματά Του υμνούν τον Παντοδύναμο Θεό.

 

Σε υμνούμε, Παντοδύναμε Θεέ! Όλοι ερχόμαστε για να Σε υμνήσουμε!

 

Όλα τα έθνη κι όλοι οι λαοί Σε υμνούν!

 

Σε υμνούμε, Παντοδύναμε Θεέ! (Σε υμνούμε, Παντοδύναμε Θεέ!)

 

Όλοι ερχόμαστε για να Σε υμνήσουμε! (Όλοι ερχόμαστε για να Σε υμνήσουμε!)

 

Όλα τα έθνη κι όλοι οι λαοί Σε υμνούν!

 

Σε υμνούμε (Σε υμνούμε)! Σε υμνούμε Παντοδύναμε Θεέ!

 

από το βιβλίο «Ακολουθήστε τον Αμνό και τραγουδήστε νέα τραγούδια»

 

Γεια σας!

 

Νεαροί αδερφοί και αδερφές, επιτρέψτε μου να σας κάνω μια ερώτηση.

 

Πώς ξέρατε να πιστέψετε στον Παντοδύναμο Θεό, ενώ είστε τόσο νέοι;

 

Ο μπαμπάς κι η μαμά μου έχουν γευτεί την ευχαρίστηση της πίστης στον Θεό,

 

κι έτσι με έφεραν μπροστά στον Παντοδύναμο Θεό, κι είμαι κι εγώ πολύ χαρούμενη.

 

Ναι, όταν δεν πίστευα στον Θεό,

 

μόνο έβλεπα τηλεόραση μετά το σχολείο κι έπαιζα με το κινητό μου, κι έπαθα μυωπία.

 

Αφότου πίστεψα στον Θεό με τον μπαμπά και τη μαμά μου,

 

τραγουδάω και χορεύω για να υμνήσω τον Θεό με τα μικρότερα αδέρφια μου και νιώθω πολύ χαρούμενος.

 

Και ο μπαμπάς και η μαμά μου είναι καθησυχασμένοι.

 

Κι εγώ! Κι εγώ!

 

Πολλοί απ’ τους συμμαθητές μου είναι εθισμένοι στα διαδικτυακά παιχνίδια, στους τσακωμούς και στο να ακολουθούν διασημότητες,

 

χωρίς να ξέρουν πώς να έχουν καλή σχέση με τους γονείς τους.

 

Αλλά εγώ διαφέρω από αυτούς.

 

Από τότε που πίστεψα στον Θεό και διάβασα τον λόγο Του,

 

δόξα τω Θεώ, με έχει κρατήσει μακριά απ’ τα κακά πράγματα στην κοινωνία,

 

και περπατώ στο σωστό μονοπάτι στη ζωή.

 

Πραγματικά!

 

Αφότου πίστεψα στον Θεό, συναντιόμαστε κάθε Σαββατοκύριακο για να διαβάσουμε τον λόγο του Θεού και να Τον υμνήσουμε.

 

Ο μπαμπάς κι η μαμά μου δεν χρειάζεται να ανησυχούν πια μήπως γίνω κακός.

 

Οι γονείς μας, μας δίνουν μεγάλη υποστήριξη στην πίστη μας στον Θεό.

 

Φοβόντουσαν ότι αν δεν πιστεύαμε στον Θεό,

 

θα μας επηρέαζαν τα κακά πράγματα στον κόσμο.

 

Αλλά τώρα μπορούν να μείνουν ήσυχοι!

 

Ευχαριστούμε τον Παντοδύναμο Θεό!

 

Ευχαριστούμε τον Παντοδύναμο Θεό!

"Marcel Duchamp en passant Mark Kostabi (Swindle of the Century)" 2002

by Mark Kostabi

Oil on canvas

   

www.francisnaumann.com/EXHIBITIONS/DuchampChess/index.html

 

“Marcel Duchamp: The Art of Chess” is the first exhibition devoted to exploring the influence of Duchamp’s activities as a chess player on his artistic production. It debuted at the St. Louis University Museum of Art (May 6 – August 16, 2009), and the present gallery exhibition is an expanded version of that show. It will open at Francis M. Naumann Fine Art on September 10, 2009 (and run through October 31, 2009).

 

The exhibition features the magnificent early cubist drawing Study for Portrait of Chess Players (1911), which renders Duchamp’s two brothers—Raymond Duchamp-Villon and Jacques Villon—intently engaged in a game of chess; a large central “X” in the center of the composition represents the precise point where their minds meet, a cerebral focus common to much of Duchamp’s subsequent production. Among the highlights of the show will be an example of the readymade Trébuchet (1917/64), the coat rack that visitors to Duchamp’s studio were expected to trip over (the chess equivalent of a gambit offered in the opening of a game); the Nice chess poster (1925); regular and deluxe examples of his book on endgame strategy (1932); the Pocket Chess Set (1943); and Cupid (1943), a recently discovered original drawing for the announcement of a show at the Julien Levy Gallery (in which Duchamp seems to have embedded a hidden message). A number of photographs of Duchamp either playing chess or seated before a chessboard will also be displayed. A signed, limited edition photograph by Arnold Rosenberg of Marcel Duchamp moving chess pieces behind glass (1958) was issued to commemorate this exhibition.

 

Also included in the show will be works by a number of Duchamp’s contemporaries—Man Ray, Georges de Zayas, Max Ernst, Salvador Dalí, Leon Kelly, Beatrice Wood, Arman and Sarah Austin—that relate to Duchamp’s involvement with the game of chess, as well as a selection of works by contemporary artists—Charles Juhàsz Alvardo, Mike Bidlo, Donald Bradford, Russell Connor, Ingrid Evans, Mark Kostabi, Sophie Matisse, Daniel Meirom, James Meyer, Trong Gia Nguyen, Yoko Ono, Jennifer Shahade, Diana Thater, Douglas Vogel—some of whom have made works specially for inclusion in this show.

 

Accompanying the exhibition will be Marcel Duchamp: The Art of Chess, a book featuring essays by Francis M. Naumann and Bradley Bailey, both of which demonstrate that Duchamp’s identity as a chess player is so thoroughly interfused with his work as an artist that the two activities are aesthetically and conceptually inseparable. The book also includes the analyses of fifteen Duchamp games by Jennifer Shahade (two-time American Women’s Chess Champion). These games will be reenacted in the exhibition on a video monitor, on which visitors will be able to view the movement of the pieces, all laid out in the format of Duchamp’s Pocket Chess Set of 1943.

профнастил цена на sotdel.ru/profnastil.html #Профнастил #sotdel кровельный, стеновой, несущий от производителя Профилированные листы (профнастил) — это облицовочный материал, изготавливающийся из оцинкованной стали как без какого-либо покрытия, так и с разнообразными полимерными покрытиями, которые придают материалу различные оттенки. Внешне профнастил имеет вид гофрированных металлических листов с волнистой или трапециевидной формой. Этот материал отлично подходит как для быстровозводимых зданий, так и для промышленного строительства. Но прежде, чем приобретать материал и монтировать его, необходимо произвести расчет кровли из профнастила. Области применения обусловлены тем, что производство оцинкованного профлиста обходится сравнительно дешево, соответственно и цена на него при продаже невысока - купить металлический профиль можно действительно недорого. Указанное деление по высоте профиля носит рекомендательный характер и в каждом конкретном случае марка материала выбирается исходя из необходимости решения определенной задачи. Цена на профнастил с полимерным покрытием выше, однако благодаря широкой цветовой гамме и привлекательному внешнему виду именно крашеный металлопрофиль отлично подходит для строительства заборов вокруг индивидуальных жилых домов, для ограждения территорий предприятий и организаций различных форм собственности, устройства кровель, изготовления сэндвич панелей. Сегодня наиболее распространенными полимерными декоративными покрытиями являются полиэстер, AGNETA, PRISMA, CLOUDY, ECOSTEEL, PVDF, VIKING, пластизол (ими же покрывается и другой популярный в современном строительстве материал — металлическая черепица). Каждое из них обладает определенным набором преимуществ, которые и обуславливают их использование для тех или иных целей. Так, профлист с покрытием из полиэстера хорошо выдерживает нагрев до 1200С и не боится жесткого ультрафиолетового излучения, что делает его пригодным для устройства кровель даже в районах с большим количеством солнечных дней.

Nave 16 (espacio de exposiciones)

 

Arquitectos: Alejandro Vírseda, José Ignacio Carnicero e Ignacio Vila Almazán, 2011

 

Un versátil espacio expositivo de más de cuatro mil metros cuadrados, capaz de acoger grandes proyectos multidisciplinares, cuya rehabilitación ha sido finalista de los premios FAD de arquitectura 2012. El espacio puede ser fácilmente dividido en módulos independientes separados por grandes paneles de acero y permitir así la programación de contenidos de forma simultánea: proyecciones, grandes exposiciones, conciertos, talleres de producción de obra, charlas, propuestas escénicas o actividades sociales. El proyecto transforma la nave en un gran espacio expositivo versátil y polivalente, que puede funcionar como la mayor sala de exposiciones, instalaciones o actividades de artes vivas de Madrid o como un conjunto de espacios independientes de menor tamaño (hasta 5 salas). Esta flexibilidad se logra mediante la introducción en los dos espacios de doble altura de unos recintos de puertas de dos alturas, concebidos como una gran instalación efímera que contrasta con el carácter tectónico e imperecedero de la envolvente arquitectónica de la nave. Estas puertas, que garantizan mediante sencillos giros la total polivalencia del espacio interior de la nave, dotan igualmente a los mismos de la versatilidad lumínica y ambiental requerida en cada uno de los espacios según las características de la actividad realizada (Las instalaciones del edificio también han sido sectorizadas para colaborar con esta versatilidad espacial). El material utilizado para realizar estas cajas de puertas es el acero, cuyo cromatismo contrasta con la superficie interior de los paramentos de la envolvente, caracterizándose así, de modo particular los dos espacios en doble altura de la nave. Cuando las puertas se abran los paramentos puros y herméticos de la caja oscura desaparecen, apareciendo la envolvente actual con su característica estructura de finos perfiles metálicos. El estrecho cuerpo adosado a la nave en su fachada hacia el río Manzanares alberga las dotaciones de servicio.

El arquitecto Joaquín Saldaña resulta ganador del concurso convocado por el Ayuntamiento de Madrid el año 1899 para la realización de los nuevos matadero y mercado municipal de ganados en la Dehesa de La Arganzuela, junto al Manzanares, si bien, finalmente las obras se realizan de acuerdo con el proyecto redactado en 1910 por Luis Bellido, arquitecto de propiedades del Ayuntamiento, con la colaboración de J. Eugenio Ribera, ingeniero de reconocido prestigio. El conjunto arquitectónico se compone de 48 edificios agrupados en cinco sectores de producción: dirección y administración, matadero, mercado de abastos, mercado de trabajo y sección sanitaria, cuenta además con viviendas para el personal y capilla; también de sistema de circulaciones y ferrocarril propios... una autentica ciudad laboral.

Sigue el sistema alemán de pabellones aislados, relacionados por medio de viales y presididos por un edificio administrativo, la "Casa del Reloj" situado sobre el eje principal de la composición. Por sus características arquitectónicas y por su escala es uno de los conjuntos edificados más significativos de Madrid. Se advierte en él una unidad estilística y constructiva derivada del uso racional en sus fábricas de tres materiales esenciales ladrillo, mampostería y cerámica, y una cuidadosa introducción de elementos metálicos en la estructura; además de otros aspectos significativos como el empleo de un lenguaje de inspiración neomudéjar muy atenuado, habitual en la arquitectura industrial de la época. El matadero de Madrid sirve de modelo para la construcción en España de este tipo de edificios.

Para el crítico González Amezqueta "Es un ejemplo de gran calidad de arquitectura industrial perfectamente insertado en los procedimientos del ladrillo, con derivaciones hacia el neomudéjar. La mecánica funcional de los procesos laborales no impide discretas acentuaciones ornamentales, ya que todo el proceso constructivo es estrictamente artesanal, con predominio de las técnicas fabricadas del ladrillo en las partes más acertadas".

En 1926, en zona próxima al Vado de Santa Catalina, proyecta Bellido el matadero de gallinas y aves, siendo realizadas las obras, entre 1932 y 1933, bajo la dirección de Francisco Javier Ferrero con la introducción de una clara y cuidada estructura de hormigón pionera en la ciudad y en la que reside uno de sus valores principales.

A partir de 1940 se llevan a cabo diferentes remodelaciones y ampliaciones, entre ellas la de la nave de patatas, el pabellón de autopsias y los abrevaderos.

En la década de 1980, perdida su función original, el Departamento de Conservación de Edificios del Ayuntamiento comienza la rehabilitación sistemática de los edificios del conjunto para su uso como contenedores de actividades culturales, sociales, deportivas y administrativas propias del Ayuntamiento; primero bajo la dirección de Rafael Fernández-Rañada, que acondiciona la Casa del Reloj para Junta Municipal del Distrito de Arganzuela y la nave de terneras para sala cultural y deportiva, y después, de Guillermo Costa que realiza el Palacio de Cristal (rehabilitación de la nave de patatas para invernadero) y el parque del matadero, con la colaboración del ingeniero, también municipal, M. Ángel Martínez Lucio.

Desde 1996 Costa continúa la consolidación estructural de fachadas y cubiertas de 7 naves del recinto sur, sin un uso predeterminado y en distintas fases, a la espera de la realización del proyecto para su adecuación a nuevas actividades de carácter cultural, comercial o de ocio. Finalmente, el conjunto edificado se incluye en el catálogo de bienes a conservar dentro del Plan General de Ordenación Urbana de 1997.

En el extremo norte parte de las antiguas naves de estabulación son cedidas al Instituto Nacional de Artes Escénicas y de la Música (INAEM) para establecer en ellas las sedes del Ballet Nacional de España y de la Compañía Nacional de Danza, según proyecto de Fernández Alba y Castillo-Puche, concluyéndose las obras de adaptación en 1999.

En 2005 se aprueba la modificación del Plan Especial de Intervención, Adecuación Arquitectónica y Control Urbanístico-Ambiental de Usos del recinto del antiguo matadero municipal, que incrementa el uso cultural hasta el 75% del total.

A partir de 2006 el Ayuntamiento se plantea rehabilitar en distintas fases, mediante proyectos derivados de concursos de arquitectura, este inmenso contenedor de casi 150.000 m2, para albergar multitud de eventos y encuentros, fomentando la creatividad de artistas de múltiples especialidades. El conjunto se convierte en un núcleo de actividad cultural que alberga las más importantes citas de la ciudad. Así, se inician actuaciones para convertir el recinto en centro de apoyo a la creación, en campo de experimentación de la nueva arquitectura, pero siguiendo los criterios de intervención del Plan Especial, que establece la preservación de la envolvente de las naves. La línea maestra que ha guiado las intervenciones es la reversibilidad, de modo que los edificios pueden ser fácilmente devueltos a su estado original. Las actuaciones mantienen expresamente las huellas del pasado para reforzar el carácter experimental de las nuevas instituciones que alojan. Se ha buscado el equilibrio entre el respeto máximo al espacio, y una dotación específica, que lo distinga, a través del uso limitado de materiales industriales directos y que, al mismo tiempo, dé servicio a los diferentes usos que pueda albergar.

En 2012, tras la visita del jurado de los premios FAD a Matadero Madrid, decidió reconocer la labor en conjunto de todos los arquitectos que han participado en el proceso de reforma. El fallo valora “tanto la actitud global de la propuesta, que apuesta de una forma valiente por la experimentación y el respeto a los espacios de libertad gestionados desde la sociedad civil, como la conceptualización del proyecto, desde su inicio en el 2007 con la rehabilitación del vestíbulo y el espacio Intermediae, hasta las recientes intervenciones de la Nave 16 y la Nave de Música finalistas en la presente edición de los Premios FAD”. Así mismo, el jurado destacó de Matadero Madrid “la inteligencia colectiva, la unidad que le viene inferida por la arquitectura industrial preexistente, y que con un mínimo de protagonismo exterior de las nuevas intervenciones, en el interior resuelve con rigor y autenticidad las diversas necesidades del extenso programa del centro, buscando no sólo mantener los espacios arquitectónicos y formas estructurales, sino también el carácter, la atmósfera y sobre todo el irrepetible paso del tiempo”.

Ese mismo año el Colegio Oficial de Arquitectos de Madrid otorgó uno de sus premios a las intervenciones en la Cineteca y Archivo Documenta, y en la Nave 16. Por último, destaca la interconexión de Matadero Madrid y Madrid Río mediante la urbanización de los espacios públicos -Calle y Plaza Matadero- por el mismo equipo de arquitectos -Ginés Garrido, Carlos Rubio y Fernando Porras- que proyectó Madrid Río. Está previsto además que dicha conexión, gracias a dos nuevos accesos, se amplíe entre diciembre de 2012 y julio de 2013. Madrid Río ha recibido, entre otros premios, el International Architecture Award 2012 del Chicago Athenaeum of Architecture and Design y el European Centre for Architecture Art Design and Urban Studies, el Premio de Diseño Urbano y Paisajismo Internacional otorgado por el Comité de Críticos de Arquitectura CICA, en el marco de la XIII Bienal de Buenos Aires; o el Premio FAD de Ciudad y Paisaje 2012, entre otros galardones.

One day I started filling a spreadsheet with all the languages I've used over the years (and with percentages of focus on each one) with the intention of creating a chart.

 

It got bigger than I expected. I guess never counted how many platforms I had actually used.

 

The original chart (created in LibreOffice) didn't look exactly good, so I decided to write custom code to plot the chart the exact way I wanted it to look like. This is the result. It was created with some messy JS code that rendered the data to a canvas object. I tweaked the colors a little bit and added the titles in Photoshop.

 

I think it's an interesting visualization of the platforms I've used. There are many different solutions to the problem, I think, but so far I'm pretty happy with this result.

 

Please view in the original size.

 

The source code can be found here. It was never meant to be released nor too flexible so it's a little bit too linear and hard-coded, but what the hell.

Εισαγωγή

φωνή Θεού

Ελληνική Χριστιανική ταινία «χτυπώντας την πόρτα» Οι χριστιανοί παρευρίσκονται στο γαμήλιο δείπνο μαζί με τον Κύριο (Τρέιλερ)

 

Ο Κύριος Ιησούς είπε: «Εν τω μέσω δε της νυκτός έγεινε κραυγή· Ιδού, ο νυμφίος έρχεται, εξέλθετε εις απάντησιν αυτού». (κατά Ματθαίον 25:6). «Ιδού, ίσταμαι εις την θύραν και κρούω· εάν τις ακούση της φωνής μου και ανοίξη την θύραν, θέλω εισέλθει προς αυτόν και θέλω δειπνήσει μετ’ αυτού και αυτός μετ’ εμού». (Αποκάλυψη 3:20). Κατά τα τελευταία δύο χιλιάδες χρόνια, εκείνοι που πιστεύουν στον Κύριο είναι σε επαγρύπνηση και περιμένουν τον Κύριο να κρούσει τη θύρα, άρα πώς Εκείνος θα κρούσει τη θύρα της ανθρωπότητας όταν επιστρέψει; Κατά τις έσχατες ημέρες, κάποιοι άνθρωποι έχουν επιμαρτυρήσει ότι ο Κύριος Ιησούς έχει επιστρέψει – ως ο ενσαρκωμένος Παντοδύναμος Θεός – και ότι εκτελεί το έργο της κρίσεως κατά τις έσχατες ημέρες. Αυτή η είδηση έχει ταράξει ολόκληρο τον θρησκευτικό κόσμο.

 

Η Γιανγκ Αϊγκουάνγκ, η πρωταγωνίστρια της ταινίας, πιστεύει στον Κύριο εδώ και δεκαετίες και έχει ήδη αρχίσει να εργάζεται και να κηρύσσει τον λόγο Του με ενθουσιασμό, περιμένοντας να υποδεχθεί την επιστροφή του Κυρίου. Μια μέρα, έρχονται δύο άνθρωποι και κρούουν τη θύρα, λένε στη Γιανγκ Αϊγκουάνγκ και στον σύζυγό της ότι ο Κύριος Ιησούς έχει επιστρέψει και μοιράζονται τον λόγο του Παντοδύναμου Θεού μαζί τους. Εκείνοι συγκινούνται βαθιά από τον λόγο του Παντοδύναμου Θεού, αλλά, επειδή η Γιανγκ Αϊγκουάνγκ έχει βιώσει την πλάνη, την εξαπάτηση και τις απαγορεύσεις των παστόρων και των πρεσβυτέρων, πετάει τους μάρτυρες της Εκκλησίας του Παντοδύναμου Θεού έξω από το σπίτι. Στη συνέχεια, οι μάρτυρες κρούουν τη θύρα τους πολλές φορές και διαβάζουν τον λόγο του Παντοδύναμου Θεού στη Γιανγκ Αϊγκουάνγκ, γινόμενοι μάρτυρες του έργου του Θεού των εσχάτων ημερών. Κατά την ίδια περίοδο, ο πάστορας ενοχλεί και εμποδίζει επανειλημμένα τη Γιανγκ Αϊγκουάνγκ, με αποτέλεσμα αυτή να συνεχίζει να αμφιταλαντεύεται. Ωστόσο, καθώς ακούει τον λόγο του Παντοδύναμου Θεού, η Γιανγκ Αϊγκουάνγκ καταλήγει να κατανοήσει την αλήθεια και καταφέρνει να κρίνει σωστά τις φήμες και τις πλάνες που διαδίδονται από τους πάστορες και τους πρεσβυτέρους. Τελικά, καταλαβαίνει με ποιον τρόπο ο Κύριος κρούει τις θύρες των ανθρώπων κατά την επιστροφή Του στις έσχατες ημέρες και πώς θα πρέπει να Τον υποδεχτεί η ίδια. Όταν καθαρίζει η «ομίχλη», η Γιανγκ Αϊγκουάνγκ ακούει επιτέλους τη φωνή του Θεού και αναγνωρίζει ότι ο Παντοδύναμος Θεός είναι πράγματι η επιστροφή του Κυρίου Ιησού!

Like many parks of the time, Union Park began as a trolley park -- a way for electric companies to encourage people to use their services. It officially opened as Stewart Park in April 1891 in a 75-foot-deep valley northwest of Dubuque known as Horseshoe Hollow. "Stewart" was the last name of the man whose farmland was purchased to create the park. It was quite simple that first spring, with hills, streams, and old miners' huts being the highlights, but improvements were scheduled to begin immediately. Such improvements included a dance pavilion, refreshment booth, bowling alleys, employee housing, and a smaller pavilion for private parties. Despite these additions, the first nine years were rather shaky as the park changed hands several times.

 

It was in 1900 that Stewart Park changed ownership yet again and was renamed Union Park by L. D. Mathes, the man chosen as the new Park Manager. Mathes dedicated his time to creating a new image for the park, and improvements abounded: newer trolley tracks were laid, modern lighting was installed, dirt paths became paved, a new dance hall (The Pavilion) was constructed, and the once simple platform where riders would step on and off the trollies became an elaborate waiting station/depot. This entrance area became known as The Loop, as the single track would split (the trolley would go to the right), form a circle whose far end was the waiting station, and then re-join itself. The Loop was at the east end of the park -- the lower end of the valley.

A rustic bandstand was built in 1905, and two years later a more elaborate one was constructed farther up the valley. The new bandstand (henceforth known as the Rustic Bandstand) was complete with a plaza and semi-circle of benches. In 1908, additional land was purchased to the west end of the park and a children's playground was erected. Mathes tried to make this area extra special with slides, swings, a carousel (the small kind you climb on at playgounds), sandboxes, and other fun amusements. A pavilion for picnics and parties was also constructed near the playground. It was this pavilion that would later adopt a somewhat macabre moniker for its involvement in the sad events surrounding the flood in 1919.

In addition to the children's playground, a roller coaster was also built in 1908. It appears from the picture in Boge's book that this ride was a side-friction coaster in the classic figure-eight design. During the same year, work was done on a cave ("Wonder Cave") that had been discovered on the land some years back. Hardened walkways (including steps and small bridges) and lights were installed inside the cave.

A year later, in 1909, the plaza in front of the the Rustic Bandstand was taken down and the largest theater in Iowa was built. Known as Mammoth Theatre, this huge structure stretched from one side of the valley to the other side, dividing the park in two. There were 1,500 opera-style seats inside, followed by benches, plus room for thousands more to see the show for free on the hill outside. You see, the back wall (on the north side of the valley) was open, so those passing by on the hill could see right in.

Union Park: Historical Overview.

 

The idea of Union Park began more than 120 years ago in the mind’s eye of Dubuque citizen William G. Stewart. Stewart’s generosity and vision for the land were essential for the concept to become reality. In the years following his initial land gift to the city, other individuals and companies would become part of the production and play large and varying roles.

 

A timeline of the major actions and events relating to Union Park follows:

 

1890. William G. Stewart donated several acres of farmland to the city with hopes of creating a place where Dubuque families could have outings.

 

March 6, 1891. The Dubuque Electric Railway Light and Power Company, known locally as the Allen and Swiney Motor Line Company, purchased an additional forty acres of land from Stewart’s farm. The company’s goal was to publicize the use of electricity through a means of transportation they used around the city: trolleys. They hoped their idea of a park at the end of their trolley line would give them the needed publicity. For purposes of their ultimate goal, it met with limited success.

 

April 26, 1891. The park officially opened. A fee of 10¢ delivered the first visitors by trolley to the then-named Stewart Park, snuggled in Horseshoe Hollow. [The return trip cost 15¢.]

 

May 11, 1893. Money soon became an impossible obstacle for the park's owners. Unable to operate a trolley line and a park, Allen and Swiney sold out to the Old Colony Trust Company.

 

July 7, 1899. As a result of a series of legal actions, the ownership of the property became part of the General Electric Company. General Electric reorganized the local firm into the Home Electric Company that sold out to Union Electric Company. A park manager was hired. The park was renamed Union Park, after the new company owner.

 

1900. A cave was discovered. In years to come, a casual walk through the cave offered some momentary respite from steamy August days. The cave was modernized in 1908 with the addition of a walkway and electric lights.

 

1904. Dirt trails and paths were replaced with cement sidewalks (image at left) that ran from the loading platform to all the buildings. The construction of a new dance hall, known as The Pavilion, was a major event. Visitors to the park were also impressed when the loading platform, little more than a dock, was replaced by an elaborate shelter (image at lower right) that protected visitors from inclement weather.

 

1905. A unique bandstand made of gnarled tree branches was constructed.

 

1907. A second bandstand of the same design was built farther into the valley with hundreds of benches nearby. Grand concerts from this bandstand were held on a regular basis each week. [Newspaper accounts from the time tell of the bands and orchestras being paid from $2,500 to $5,000 weekly. The bandstand was also the setting for many high school and college graduations.]

 

1908. More land was purchased; a children's playground was developed that offered a variety of equipment including slides, swings and carousels. A wooden roller coaster was constructed.

 

1909. The Mammoth Theater (image at left), advertised as the largest in the West, was built. Costing Union Electric $30,000 to construct, the Mammoth Theater stretched from one hillside to the other dividing the park into two parts. Anticipating large crowds, 1,500 opera chairs were installed. The theater, designed carefully for excellent acoustics, was open at one end, allowing an additional 5,000 people to see and hear (at no charge) the musical programs. [Seating inside the theater: Depending on the program and time of day, sitting in the opera seats cost audience members ten to fifteen cents; benches set up behind the opera seats cost five to ten cents.]

 

1910. A children's wading pool was added. (See image at right.) [It was modeled after, and constructed as a miniature of, the internationally known wading pool in Chicago's Ogdon Park.]

 

1911 to 1919. Park use flourished. In 1916 Union Electric Company assets were sold to the Dubuque Electric Company, but continued attention to beautifying the area led the park to remain one of eastern Iowa's most popular and enchanting settings.

 

July 9, 1919. Weather predictions called for possible thunderstorms on this Wednesday afternoon, but usual summer activities were continued as planned. The first drops of rain in the afternoon quickly turned into a downpour. Picnickers, still feeling secure, ran for nearby shelter, unaware that the cloudburst had created a wall of water that soon tore into the park. The Mammoth Theater, which stretched across the valley, inadvertently served as a dam, blocking the water’s dispersion and making the flood worse. Concrete sidewalks were ripped up by the fury of the torrent. The massive wall of water demolished the merry-go-round and backed up behind the theater to a height estimated to be twenty feet before pushing on downhill. According to the National Weather Bureau, 3.87 inches of rain fell that afternoon, most in less than a two-hour period. Five people died that day at Union Park, and an estimated $15,000 in damage was done.

 

July 13, 1919. Although none of the debris had yet been removed, Union Park reopened to the public. Visitors were given the opportunity to view the massive damage done by the floodwaters. Plans were developed and rebuilding efforts began immediately.

 

July 26, 1923. A dance pavilion was rebuilt using the floor from the Mammoth Theater. This ballroom was advertised as the largest in Iowa.

 

Later in 1923. A 50-foot-by-150-foot Olympic-sized swimming pool, said to be able to hold 2,000 bathers, was constructed to attract residents back to the park. The popular Pavilion was converted into a roller-rink.

 

Despite best attempts to rekindle interest in Union Park, those efforts failed as attendance remained low. Of concern to Dubuque Electric Company, the park owners at the time, was the appearance of automobiles in Dubuque. Vehicles permitted Dubuque residents, once confined to Dubuque and its attractions, to travel outside the city. Union Park also suffered from the opening, in 1907, of Eagle Point Park, a 133-acre public park and recreation area overlooking the Zebulon Pike Lock and Dam (Lock and Dam No. 11) on the Mississippi River.

 

April 27, 1927. Dubuque Electric Company sold out to Interstate Power Company.

 

1934. Interstate Power Company announced that Union Park would close.

 

1935. Park buildings were dismantled. Union Park's dance hall was reassembled (as the popular Melody Mill) on Sageville Road near the intersection of Highway 52/Northwest Arterial/John F. Kennedy Road. For safety, the cave entrance was blasted shut. Wood from the roller coaster was made into a barn.

 

September 5, 1946. The YMCA and the Boy Scouts purchased the land; cabins were constructed on the hillsides, along with a mess hall, swimming pool, stables, and bathrooms. [Soon after the completion of the project, the Scouts chose to erect their own campgrounds, leaving the YMCA with the 100-acre Union Park property.]

 

Early 2010. The Dubuque Community Y began discussing the possibility of expanding the land use of Union Park with a zipline tour.

 

May 2011. Construction of the Sky Tours Zipline was completed; guides were trained and certified; and the zipline was opened to the public for business.

Εισαγωγή

Εκκλησία του Παντοδύναμου Θεού

Εκκλησιαστικοί ύμνοι | Ο Θεός ελπίζει ότι η ανθρωπότητα μπορεί να συνεχίσει να ζει

 

I

 

Όταν η ανθρωπότητα ήταν ακάθαρτη, ανυπάκουη ως έναν βαθμό,

 

ο Θεός έπρεπε να την καταστρέψει, ως αρχή.

 

Απεχθανόταν τους ανθρώπους, για την εναντίωσή τους.

 

Μα, σαν τους κατέστρεψε,

 

το έλεός Του στην καρδιά Του παρέμεινε.

Ύμνοι

II

 

Λυπόταν τον άνθρωπο, ήθελε να εξιλεωθεί.

 

Μα οι άνθρωποι δεν υπάκουαν, αρνούνταν τη σωτηρία Του.

 

Παρά το κάλεσμά Του, τη βοήθεια Αυτού,

 

ο άνθρωπος δεν μπόρεσε να Τον εκτιμήσει.

 

III

 

Ο Θεός με ανοχή τον περίμενε να μεταστραφεί.

 

Έφτασε στα όριά Του πριν κάνει αυτό που έπρεπε.

 

Απ’ τη σύλληψη του σχεδίου Του, μέχρι να το κάνει πράξη,

 

είχε χρόνο ο άνθρωπος να μεταστραφεί:

 

η τελευταία ευκαιρία του,

 

η τελευταία ευκαιρία το, η τελευταία ευκαιρία από τον Θεό.

σύσταση:Εκκλησιαστικοί ύμνοι

Philadelphia, PA, est. 1682; pop. 1,567,442 (metro 6MM)

 

• built in 1740 • earliest known photograph is dated 1859 — bldg. was then 119 yrs. old [photo] • Georgian-Colonial trinity aka "bandbox" design • typically, trinity houses had 1 room per floor & were built facing each other in rows of 4 identical bldgs. • in addition to the room on each floor, this house had a walkable attic room & a cellar

 

• served as both business & residence for shopkeepers & artisans for over 150 yrs. • among the occupants in the 18th c. were a shoemaker, apothecary & an upholsterer named Betsy Ross, who is said to have sewn the first American flag in this building • estimates of when & how long she lived here have her arriving in 1773 at the earliest & departing as late as 1791

 

• over time the house changed in appearance [photos] as neighborhood houses were razed & replaced w/larger commercial buildings —Where's Betsy

 

Betsy Ross

 

• Elizabeth "Betsy" Griscom (1752-1836) was a fourth-generation American • daughter of Samuel Griscom (1717-1793) & Rebecca James (c. 1730-1793) • the 8th of their 17 children • great granddaughter of Andrew Griscom (c. 1654-1694), a Quaker carpenter who migrated from England to New Jersey in 1680, 1 yr. before William Penn founded Philadelphia

 

"She often laughed at the curious fact that she was born on the first day of the week, the first day of the month, the first day of the year, and the first year of the 'new style' [which was] the dividing line between the old way of measuring the years time and the new method under the [Gregorian calendar… She was also] the seventh daughter of a seventh daughter." —C.B. Satterthwaite, great grandson, The Des Moines Register, 07 Jan, 1906

 

• at age 3 Betsy's family moved to a large home at 4th & Arch Sts. • went to a Friends (Quaker) public school • 8 of her siblings died before adulthood • lost her mother, father & sister, Deborah, to the 1793 yellow fever epidemic

 

• upon completion of her schooling at age 12, her father apprenticed her to upholsterer John Webster • fell in love with fellow apprentice John Ross (1752-1773), son of an Episcopal asst. rector at Christ Church • defying her parents, in 1773 Betsy, age 21, eloped w/John

 

• Betsy's sister Sarah & her husband Capt. Wm. Donaldson rowed the couple across the Delaware River, heading 5 miles downstream to Gloucestertown, NJ • they were married at family friend William Hugg Jr.'s tavern & inn, known locally as Hugg's …more: The New Jersey Hugg Line

 

• because her marriage to a non-Quaker was considered an act of "disorderly and undutiful conduct," Betsy was split from her family & read out of meeting, i.e., disowned by her Quaker community • became a member of Christ Church • the Ross's pew No. 12 [photo] was adjacent to Martha & George Washington's No. 56 & not far from Deborah & Benjamin Franklin's No. 70

 

• the newlyweds — now trained upholsterers — opened their own business • c. 1773 they rented a house, probably at what is today 239 Arch St. although the exact site is still debated by historians • most records point to this house or one next door at No. 241, long since razed

 

"The identity of the location was always preserved in the family, which agrees with the records in the old Philadelphia directories… from 1785, the first published, to the removal of Betsy Ross and her husband from 239 Arch Street, in 1791" —Betsy Ross grandson George Canby, New York Times, 05 July, 1908

 

• Benjamin Franklin & Benjamin Chew were among the Rosses' customers • business slowed during the Revolutionary War as fabric was in short supply • John Ross joined the Pennsylvania militia • mid-Jan., 1776, he was gravely wounded by a powder explosion at a Delaware River ammunition cache, apparently while standing guard • Betsy nursed him in their home, but he died within days

 

• in June, 1777, Betsy married girlhood suitor Joseph Ashburn, a privateer who commanded the sailing sloop Swallow • the couple had 2 daughters • the 1st, Aucilla ("Zillah"), died in infancy

 

• British troops entered Philadelphia on 26 Sep., 1777 after their victory at the Battle of Brandywine • the Ashburn home was forcibly shared with British occupation soldiers as the Continental Army suffered through the killing winter at Valley Forge • the British soldiers nicknamed Betsy "Little Rebel" —US History•org

 

• Betsy was pregnant with Elizabeth ("Eliza") when Joseph accepted a job offer & shipped out as first mate on the 6-gun brigantine, Patty • returned to be present for the Feb., 1781 birth of their 2nd daughter

 

• Joseph became master of the 18-gun Lion & took her to sea late in the summer of 1781 • on 31 Aug., his ship was captured off the coast of France by a 44-gun British frigate, the HMS Prudente

 

• prior to March, 1782, the British refused to designate captured rebels as prisoners of war, thus the captives from the Lion were viewed as traitors, charged with high treason & committed to Plymouth, England's Mill Prison [images] • while incarcerated, Ashburn met fellow prisoner John Claypoole, a longtime friend of the Ross family

 

• Claypoole, a Continental Army vet, had been wounded at Germantown & consequently discharged • in 1781 he signed on to man the 18-gun Pennsylvania privateer Chevalier de la Luzerne & was captured in April • in the spring of 1782 Ashburn died in prison, leaving Betsy a 2-time war widow at age 30 —Betsy Ross and the Making of America

 

"In the Night of the 3d of March Mr Joseph Ashburn departed this life after an illness of about a week which he bore with amazing fortitude & resignation" —John Claypoole, Mill Prison

 

"The story goes that Ashburn, while in Mill Prison, often talked with John Claypoole about his wife, Betty*, and at his death sent farewell messages by him to her. Claypoole, on his arrival in Philadelphia, hastened to deliver these messages, and inside of eight months he married her." —John Claypoole's Memorandum-Book *Betsy is referred to as "Betty" in some 18th, 19th & early 20th c. books & media

 

• in 1782 Claypoole returned to Philadelphia, called on Betsy & married her the following year • gave up his seafaring career to join her at the Arch St. upholstery shop • though renamed "John Claypoole, upholsterer," to customers the shop remained Betsy's place • the couple had 5 daughters: Clarissa, Susanna, Rachel, Jane & Harriet, who died at 9 months • sometime after Susanna's birth in 1786, the Claypooles moved from Arch St. to a larger house on 2nd

 

• Betsy returned to her Quaker roots, albeit with the Free (Fighting) Quakers, a group exiled from the main Quaker community when their support for the Revolution was ruled a violation of the faith's peace testimony • the couple became members c. 1785 • image: Betsy Claypoole signature taken from the Meeting House roster

 

• it is widely believed that when the Free Quaker Meeting House shut down in 1834, it was its last attending members — Elizabeth Claypoole & Samuel Wetherill — who closed the doors

 

• in 1817, after a long illness, John Claypoole died • Betsy never remarried • after retiring, she moved to the home of her daughter, Susanna • she died on 30 Jan, 1836, age 84

 

The American Flags

 

"Flags were a rare sight on land in the British North American colonies," —Wooden Teachout, Capture the Flag: A Political History of American Patriotism

 

American flags were seldom used in parades or displayed by private citizens • colors were flown mainly in battle, over government institutions & on ships, where they were essential to identifying other vessels & determining friend or foe

 

• this changed after America's 1876 Centennial Exposition, which explains why "flags made prior to the Civil War are extremely rare, and flags made before 1820 are practically nonexistent." —Jeff R. Bridgeman, Stars and Stripes, Early American Life, Aug. 2011

 

• with the onset of the Revolutionary War, a flag for the "United Colonies" was created without the sanction of the Continental Congress • this 1775 flag was known as the Continental Colors, aka Grand Union, Congress Flag, Cambridge Flag

 

• on 2 Dec., 1775, the 1st Continental Colors flag was hand sewn by milliner Margaret Manny, who had begun making flags & ensigns the previous year

 

"Everyone knows about Betsy Ross, why do we know nothing about Margaret Manny? Probably for no better reason than that she had fewer articulate friends and relatives to build a story around her." —historian Barbara Tuchman, The First Salute

 

• the Continental Colors had 13 alternating red & white stripes with the British Union crosses in the canton • was created to replace the use of individual colony flags • prior to the Declaration of Independence, it was probably the most used unofficial flag of the revolution • American Flag Timeline

 

• the inclusion of the British Jack in the design signals that this flag was intended not for a civil war of secession, but rather a crusade to secure the American colonists' rights as Englishman • prior to the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Gen. George Washington, still hoping for reconciliation with Mother England, would occasionally toast the King —The Forgotten Flag of the American Revolution and What It Means

 

• on 3 Dec, 1775, the new flag was raised by 1st Lt. John Paul Jones (1747-1792) on the 30-gun Continental Navy frigate USS Alfred [painting], the 1st national ensign to fly on an American fighting vessel —Naval History Blog

 

• the flag later flew over the signing of the Declaration of Independence & according to tradition (contested by some scholars), it was raised on a ship's mast atop Charlestown's Prospect Hill [painting] during Washington's 1 Jan., 1776 siege of Boston

 

• spotting the hybrid British/American flag for the first time, confused British observers took it as a signal of submission: “By this time, I presume, they begin to think it strange that we have not made a formal surrender of our lines,” Washington wrote • his psychological weaponry also included an early form of war propaganda

 

• absent a single government-mandated flag design, a variety of others were used • within a yr. after Prospect hill, the Continental Colors' Union Jack was replaced by a blue field w/13 white stars in various arrangements, e.g., rows, or possibly a circle?

 

• on 14 June, 1777, now celebrated as Flag Day, the American Flag was born by resolution of the Continental Congress, the country’s 1st flag law • during the Revolutionary period that followed, the stars on most American flags were arranged in rows of 4-5-4 with the number of points on most stars ranging from 4 to 8 • compared to the Continental Colors, the rows of stars made it easier to identify the flag/ship/nationality at sea —The 13 Stars & Stripes

 

The Story

 

• about a year before the Flag Resolution of 1777 Betsy Ross, 5-months a widow & struggling to make a ends meet, is said to have received a visit from a Continental Congress flag committee (apparently a secret one as there are no records of its existence)

 

• according to the well known Betsy Ross story, in late May of 1776 (but possibly 1777) 3 heroes of the revolution — George Ross, the uncle of Betsy's late husband, financier/slave trader Robert Morris & Betsy's pew neighbor Gen. George Washington [portraits] — called on her to discuss a flag for the new nation

 

• Rachel Fletcher (Betsy's daughter) recalled that "…she was previously well acquainted with Washington, and that he had often been in her house in friendly visits, as well as on business. That she had embroidered ruffles for his shirt bosoms and cuffs, and that it was partly owing to his friendship for her that she was chosen to make the flag." —Rachel's affidavit

 

• as told by Betsy, Gen. Washington, then head of the Continental Army, showed her a rough design of a flag with 6-pointed stars • she offered suggestions for modifications & stated a preference for 5-pointed stars • when her visitors expressed concern over the difficulty of producing them, she replied, "Nothing easier," which she then proved by cutting a 5-pointed star in a single snipvideo: Make a perfect star with ONE cut! (1:15) • Two Conundrums Concerning the Betsy Ross Five-Pointed Star

 

• changes approved, Washington redrew the flag w/a pencil • Betsy's friend & collaborator William Barrett, a Cherry St. ornamental painter created a water color copy of the drawing for her to work from • 1-2 other seamstresses sewed alternate designs for the committee, but only Betsy's was approved & used

 

• what is known today as the "Betsy Ross flag" has 13 red & white stripes & a ring of 13, white 5-pointed stars • though the design may have been in use by 1777, vexillologists believe that between 1777-1795, (the yrs. the official flag had 13 stars) most flags displayed stars in rows, which are easier to produce than a circle

 

• None of the surviving flags from the 18th century exhibit the Betsy Ross pattern • however a few examples are depicted in the art of the era (although period art is notoriously unreliable for flag research)

 

• the flag depicted in Chas. Willson Peale's 1779 George Washington at the Battle of Princeton is generally considered credible & "may be the only evidence in a painting… that suggests that a circle-pattern flag may have existed in colonial times… Otherwise, you won't see an American flag with a perfect circle of stars made before the 1890s." —Jeff R. Bridgeman, loc. cit.13 Stars in the Betsy Ross Pattern • historically significant the American flags [images]

 

• though known as an upholsterer, there is no doubt that Betsy made flags, having sewn pennants & ensigns for the Pennsylvania State Navy Board (as did Margaret Manning & Rebecca Young, whose daughter Mary Pickersgill would go on to sew the enormous flag that inspired the U.S. National Anthem, Francis Scott Key's The Star-Spangled Banner)

 

• a month before Congress passed the Flag Resolution, Betsy was paid 14 pounds, 12 shillings, 2 pence (~$2,300 in 2017 USD) for what must have been a prodigious quantity of Pennsylvania Navy flags • there is no hard evidence that any of these were American flags • "...today we are reasonably convinced that Betsy’s flag was a naval flag, with a simple ‘in line’ arrangement of the stars…" —John B. Harker, Historian & Betsy Ross descendent

 

• Betsy (Elizabeth Claypool) was now in the business of producing flags & ensigns for the federal govt. • throughout the Jefferson & Madison admins. the skilled needlewoman made flags as large as 18' x 24' for American military installations, with demand peaking during the War of 1812

 

• for the rest of her life she — in her words — "never knew what it was to want employment" • her oldest daughter, Clarissa Sidney Wilson (1785-1864) [portrait], succeeded her, supplying arsenals, navy yards & the mercantile marine with flags for years —Betsy Ross•org

 

"In the last years of her life, Ross was neither more nor less important than other aging women who had lived through the Revolution. That she became famous while others were forgotten exposes the interlocking power of family history, local memory, and national politics." —How Betsy Ross Became Famous by Laurel Thatcher Ulrich, Historian

 

The Legend

 

"…at a time of great historic import such as that time when the Declaration was signed, people have no leisure to think about the minor events which are taking place. Thus, during the revolution no one thought of Betsy Ross as a national heroine, and it was not, in fact until 1870 that William J. Canby (1825-1890) first brought the story of how the first flag was made into general prominence." —Dr. Lloyd Balderston, great-grandson of Betsy Ross, The Philadelphia Inquirer, 3 Jul, 1908

 

• there is no record of the the Betsy Ross story prior to 1870 • that year — 34 years after her death — Betsy's 45 yr. old grandson, a title processor named William Jackson Canby, presented a paper titled The History of the Flag of the United States to the Historical Society of Pennsylvania • the document, accompanied by sworn affidavits, was an oral history passed on by descendants of Betsy Ross, including Canby himself who was 11 yrs. old when she died • …more: The Evolution of the American Flag by (Betsy Ross descendants) George Canby (1829-1907), Lloyd Balderston, Ph.D (1863-1933)

 

• the story was largely ignored until it was mentioned in historian George Henry Preble's 1872 book Our Flag & appeared in the July, 1873 Harper's Monthly [illustration] • with Civil War wounds slowly healing & the 1876 centennial celebration fast approaching, Betsy Ross & the flag entered American consciousness • in the 1880's her story began to appear in textbooks • by the mid 1890s it was often illustrated by an engraving of The Birth of Our Nation’s Flag, an 1893 painting by Charles H. Weisgerber (1856-1932)

 

oral tradition has it that in 1892 Weisgerber, a 36 yr. old aspiring artist, was bent on winning a forthcoming art competition • walking along Arch St., he noticed a plaque at No. 239 which identified the bldg. as the site where Betsy Ross sewed the 1st American flag

 

• inspired, Weisgerber envisioned a scene of Betsy & the 1st flag set in her shop • to fill in details of the story, characters & setting, he drew on period portraits, the testimony of living descendants & the 22 yr. old Canby paper

 

• with no authentic image of Betsy in existence (according to her relatives), Weisgerber painted a composite taken from images of 4 of her daughters & a granddaughter who was said to closely resemble her • the resulting portrait was critiqued by relatives who had known her & modified accordingly • Weisgerber then created a massive 9' x 12' painting • portrayed the young Widow Ross, saintly matriarch of a new nation, as she presents the 1st American flag to 3 revered American patriarchs

 

• "the image was [said] …by Mrs. Ross' grandson, George Canby, to be the only correct likeness of [her]" — he was 7 yrs. old when Betsy Ross died —The Times (Philadelphia) 15 Jun 1893

 

• the flag depicted in the painting — with no evidence to support the authenticity of its design — has since been known as the "Betsy Ross flag," the standard for celebrating the U.S.A.'s birthday each 4th of July

 

The Apotheosis

 

• Weisgerber's painting won the $1,000 prize & in 1893 was showcased in the Pennsylvania Building at Chicago’s Columbian Exposition • seen by millions of visitors • contributed to the nascent reverence for Betsy Ross & the flag as sacred symbols of the emerging, quasi-religious American civil religion • politicians, patriotic societies & public sentiment propelled the flag's transformation into an object of veneration, its role expanding well beyond the customary military & govt. functions

 

On Flag Day, 1894, the Colonial Dames gathered 500 schoolchildren to honor “the adoption by Congress . . . of the flag made by Betsy Ross from the design submitted to her by Gen. Washington” • by 1895, 10 states had laws requiring public schools to display the flag on all school days — Laurel Thatcher Ulrich, loc. cit.

 

• in 1897 the City of New York bought thousands of lithographs of Weisgerber’s painting for its public schools: “It is thought that the representation which is declared historically correct, together with such lectures as the teachers may deliver, will add much to the pupil’s knowledge and keep alive a proper reverence for the country’s emblem.” —New York Times, 14 Feb, 1897

 

• in 1885, NYC school principal George T. Balch (1821-1908), a vet. of the Indian & Civil Wars, wrote Salute to the Flag, the U.S.A.'s first pledge of allegiance

 

"I give my hand and my heart to my country — one nation, one language, one flag."

 

• the heightened patriotism of the era inspired a movement to organize schoolyard flag raising ceremonies • the American Flag Assn. was founded in 1897 for the "fostering of public sentiment in favor of honoring the flag in our country and preserving it from desecration" • Natl. Flag Day was proclaimed in 1917

 

Christian Socialist Francis Bellamy (1855-1931), who worked in the premium dept. of The Youth's Companion magazine, wrote a new U.S. Pledge of Allegiance (1892) for his employer • created as part of the magazine's campaign to sell American flags to public schools • goal was a flag in every classroom • 25,000 schools acquired flags the 1st yr. • though priced "at cost," banner sales proved profitable

 

• Bellamy also choreographed a salute — the "Bellamy Salute" — to accompany the pledge • because of its similarity to the Nazi heil it was replaced by a right-hand-over-heart gesture during World War II • another Youth's Companion employee, James Upham, headed a flag-centric project designed to engage public schools in the commemoration of the U.S.A.'s 1st Columbus Day (Oct. 1892)

 

The Verdict

 

• for nearly a century-and-a-half, historians have debated the available evidence in an attempt to prove that Betsy Ross either did or did not produce the 1st American flag: "There’s no good historical evidence that she did. But that doesn’t mean she didn’t. There’s simply a lack of documentation. Most historians believe the story is apocryphal." —Marc Leepson, author of Flag: An American Biography, The Truth About Betsy Ross

 

• the identity of the woman who sewed America's 1st flag may never be certain, but there is good reason to believe that its designer may have been Francis Hopkinson (1737-1791) • the NJ representative to the Continental Congress & signer of the Declaration of Independence is the only person entered into the Congressional record for designing the 1st American flag

 

• it has been speculated that on 14 June, 1777, it was Hopkinson who replaced the British crosses in the Continental Colors with white stars on a blue field • no original sketch of a Hopkinson flag exists, but surviving rough sketches including his design for the Great Seal of the U.S. incorporate elements of 2 of his flag designs —Wikipedia

 

On 25 May, 1780, Hopkinson wrote to the Continental Board, requesting "a Quarter Cask of the public Wine" as payment for several itemized "patriotic designs" he had completed, most notably, "the flag of the United States of America" • submitted another bill on 24 June for "drawings and devices," including "the Naval Flag of the United States"

 

• the Treasury Board rejected his request for payment because he "was not the only person consulted on those exhibitions of Fancy" & furthermore was not entitled to compensation as he was already on the government payroll —Did Francis Hopkinson Design Two Flags?, Earl P. Williams, Jr.

 

• Hopkinson is also considered America's 1st poet-composer • written at age 21, his song My Days have been so Wondrous Free (1759) is regarded as the earliest surviving American secular composition [listen] —UPen•edu

 

Saving Betsy's House

 

• by 1859, 239 Arch St. was occupied by the family of German immigrant (Carl) Philip Mund (1822-1883), who operated a tailor's shop on the 1st floor • the landlord, after collecting rent for the first year, never returned • over the succeeding rent-free decades, the Munds operated a variety of businesses in their retail space

 

• after Canby's 1870 speech identified the location of Betsy Ross's house as Arch between 2nd & 3rd, the Munds — occupants of the block's last standing colonial house — posted a sign: "First Flag of the US Made in this House" • in 1876, as visitors poured into the city for the Philadelphia Centennial Exhibition, the Munds ran an ad for their latest 1st floor business: "Original Flag House, Lager, Wine and Liquors. This is the house where the first United States flag was made by Mrs. John Ross." —Historic Philadelphia

 

• after Philip Mund died his wife Amelia, who objected to running a saloon, converted the space into a cigar store & candy shop which operated until 1892 — her son Charles then devoted the space to a museum/souvenir shop [photo] —The Betsy Ross House Facts, Myths, and Pictures by G.A. Anderson

 

• c. 1897 citizens led by Charles Weisgerber organized the American Flag Soc. & Betsy Ross Memorial Assn. • goal was to rescue the house from imminent demolition • intended to purchase it from Charles Mund, restore it to its 18th-c. appearance, preserve the memory of Betsy Ross & honor the American flag

 

• to raise the funds for purchasing the Betsy Ross "American Flag House," the Association devised a rudimentary multi-level marketing strategy • sold lifetime memberships for 10 cents • each member was encouraged to recruit others & form a group of 30; each group founder received a chromolithographograph of Weisgerber's painting • over 2 million monochrome certificates were sold at ten cents each • the colorful chromoliths were available at addl. cost (frame not included) —Enjoying Philadelphia

 

• the Association leased the house in 1898, purchased it in 1903 • Weisgerber & his family moved in • lived upstairs, kept the museum & a souvenir shop on the 1st floor • in 1902 they named their newborn son Charles Vexil Domus, Latin for "flag house" [photo] • he would later replace his parents as custodian of the house —G.A. Anderson, loc. cit.

 

• by 1936 the house was on the verge of ruin • in 1937 Philadelphia Mayor Davis Wilson proposed a restoration by WPA workers • this provoked "a storm of protest" from critics

 

• Pennsylvania Historical Soc. members wrote off the Betsy Ross story as "hokum" and "the bunk" • the protests from scholars & historians sparked an unwinnable faith vs. reason culture war with patriotic organizations such as the Daughters of the American Revolution & the Patriotic Order Sons of America

 

• amid the controversy, Philadelphia radio manufacturer & philanthropist A. Atwater Kent (1873-1949) offered to pay up to $25K for the restoration • Historical architect, Richardson Brognard Okie (1875-1945) won the commission

 

• the design for the restoration was derived from evidence & conjecture • goal was to return the bldg. to its c. 1777 appearance • surviving architectural elements were preserved when possible • materials salvaged from demolished colonial era homes were also used • in 1941, the Association gave the property to the city • the house now stands as one of Philadelphia's most popular tourist attractions

 

Postscript

 

• in 1929 Hugg's tavern, where Betsy Griscom defied family & church to marry John Ross, was demolished to make way for the Proprietor's Park swimming pool, which no longer exists • the Revolutionary War-era Hugg-Harrison-Glover House (1764), built on property owned by the Hugg family as early as 1683, was razed in the face of fervent opposition, March, 2017 —Facebook

 

• 178 yrs. after Betsy's wedding & just 5 blocks from where Hugg's once stood, another American legend was born at the Twin Bar [photo] when Bill Haley (and the Saddlemen) performed there in the early 1950s [poster] • in 1952 Haley's band laid down a cover of Rock the Joint [listen], an historic 1949 recording by Jimmy Preston & His Prestonians [listen] • each of these recordings has been cited as a candidate for the title of first rock 'n' roll song • Gloucester City thus became one of several U.S. sites that claims the title "Cradle of Rock 'n Roll"

 

Charles H. Weisgerber died in 1932 • his magnum opus, The Birth of the American Flag lay rolled up & hidden away in a barn loft & later in the back of a South Jersey dye-making workshop • his grandson Stuart (son of Vexil Domus) found it — still rolled up — in his mother's basement • its poor condition precluded exhibition: in the 50s, hanging in the old State Museum at Harrisburg, it had been vandalized, then incurred additional damage from repeated unrolling

 

• Weisgerber sought a Philadelphia home for the massive work but was unsuccessful • after a $40K restoration in 2002 the painting, it's appraised market value just $50K, returned to the State Museum at Harrisburg

 

• in 1976 the remains of Betsy Ross & 3rd husband John Claypoole were moved from Mount Moriah cemetery, Yeadon, PA, to the garden on the west side of the Betsy Ross House courtyard

Aizawl, March 12 Nearly 11,000 tribal boys and girls in India’s northeastern state of Mizoram danced their way into the Guinness Book of World Records by setting a record of the largest dance ensemble in the world.

A new Guinness world record was created with 10,780 dancers performing the bamboo dance for eight minutes in perfect rhythm,” a representative of the Guinness Book of World Records, Lucia Sinigagliesi, announced after the event.

 

“About 671 troupes comprising 10,736 dancers participated in the mass dance congregation at the Assam Rifles ground and its outskirts in the heart of the capital Aizawl city to demonstrate the world’s largest and longest dance ensemble,” Jim K. Chozah, Mizoram information and public relations director.

 

The bamboo dance locally known as the Cheraw dance is the harbinger of the Chapchar Kut festival of the Mizos, which marks the end of winter and the advent of summer.

From the gallery website:

 

The McMichael cemetery is the final resting place for six members of the Group of Seven, their spouses, and the gallery’s founders, Robert and Signe McMichael. While it was a provision of the 1965 Gift Agreement that the founders be buried on the gallery grounds, the consecrated cemetery was not established until 1968 at the suggestion of A.Y. Jackson and A.J. Casson.

 

In his book, One Man’s Obsession, Robert McMichael recalls receiving a letter from Jackson in 1967, in which the artist expressed a hope to be buried near Kleinburg. A few months later, while Jackson and Casson were visiting the McMichaels, the idea of a memorial cemetery for members of the Group of Seven began to take shape. In the spring of 1968, Jackson fell seriously ill and the need for a burial ground on the gallery premises became pressing. The McMichaels had to select an appropriate location for the cemetery that would be accessible, yet quiet and dignified. They soon settled on a small grassy knoll with views of the river valleys, the woods, the Tom Thomson Shack and the distant roofs of the gallery. Later, the McMichaels arranged to have the Department of Highways bring carefully selected slabs of granite, blasted during road building in the artists’ beloved north country, to the site. They were carved by Canadian sculptor, E.B. Cox and used as grave markers.

 

While his illness had prompted the cemetery’s construction, Jackson lived for several more years at the home of Robert and Signe McMichael.

 

The chronological development of the cemetery is as follows:

 

Arthur Lismer (1885‐1969): Lismer died in Montreal, Quebec on March 23, 1969 and was brought to Kleinburg for burial on April 25, 1969. His wife Esther (1879‐1976) was buried with him.

 

Frederick Horsman Varley (1881‐1969): Varley died on September 8, 1969, was cremated on September 13 and interred the following week.

 

Lawren Stewart Harris (1885‐1970): Harris died in Vancouver, British Columbia on January 29, 1970 and was cremated. His ashes, along with those of his wife, Bess

(1889‐1969), were interred at the McMichael on March 20, 1970.

 

Alexander Young Jackson (1882‐1974): Jackson died on April 5, 1974 and was buried in a graveside service on April 8, 1974.

 

Frank Johnston(1888‐1949): Johnston died July 9, 1949 and was originally buried at Mount Pleasant Cemetery in Toronto. He was disinterred and reinterred at the McMichael on March 13, 1975. His wife, Florence, is buried with him.

 

Alfred Joseph Casson(1898‐1992): Casson died on February 19, 1992 in Toronto and was buried on February 20, 1992. His wife, Margaret (1900‐1992) is buried with him.

 

Robert McMichael(1921‐2003): Robert McMichael died on November 18, 2003 and was buried on November 24 following visitation and a funeral service at the gallery.

 

Signe McMichael(1921‐2007): Signe McMichael died on July 4, 2007. The gallery was closed for visitation and a funeral held on July 9.

Οι γονείς της Γουένια χώρισαν όταν εκείνη ήταν δύο ετών και κατόπιν έζησε με τον πατέρα και τη μητριά της. Η μητριά της δεν μπορούσε να την αντέξει και πάντα μάλωνε με τον πατέρα της. Αυτός δεν είχε άλλη επιλογή - έπρεπε να στείλει τη Γουένια στο σπίτι της μητέρας της - αλλά η μητέρα της ήταν πλήρως επικεντρωμένη στο να διοικεί την επιχείρησή της και δεν είχε χρόνο να φροντίσει τη Γουένια. Έτσι, εκείνη συχνά πηγαινοερχόταν σε σπίτια συγγενών και φίλων που φρόντιζαν για την ανατροφή της. Μετά από πολλά χρόνια τέτοιας ανατροφής, η νεαρή Γουένια ένιωθε μόνη κι αβοήθητη και λαχταρούσε τη ζεστασιά ενός σπιτιού. Μόνο όταν ο πατέρας και η μητριά της χώρισαν επέστρεψε κοντά στον πατέρα της κι από τότε, είχε ένα σπίτι, κι ό,τι βρέξει ας κατεβάσει...

 

Μόλις μεγάλωσε η Γουένια, ήταν πολύ προσεκτική κι υπάκουη και μελετούσε σκληρά. Αλλά τη στιγμή που δούλευε σκληρά για να προετοιμαστεί για τις εισαγωγικές εξετάσεις στο κολέγιο, την χτύπησε η ατυχία: Η μητέρα της έπαθε εγκεφαλική αιμορραγία κι έμεινε παράλυτη και κατάκοιτη. Ο πατριός της εγκατέλειψε τη μητέρα της και μάλιστα πήρε τον έλεγχο όλων των περιουσιακών της στοιχείων και ο πατέρας της νοσηλεύτηκε με καρκίνο του ήπατος. Η Γουένια δεν μπορούσε να αναλάβει το βάρος όλου του νοικοκυριού, οπότε το μόνο που μπορούσε να κάνει ήταν να παρακαλέσει συγγενείς και φίλους, αλλά την απέρριψαν...

 

Τη στιγμή που η Γουένια υπέφερε και χωρίς πόρους, δύο αδελφές από την Εκκλησία του Παντοδύναμου Θεούέδωσαν μαρτυρία στη Γουένια, τη μητέρα και την αδελφή της για το έργο του Παντοδύναμου Θεού στις έσχατες ημέρες. Κατανόησαν την πηγή του πόνου στη ζωή των ανθρώπων από τα λόγια του Παντοδύναμου Θεού και κατάλαβαν ότι μόνο εάν οι άνθρωποι έρθουν μπροστά στον Θεό μπορούν να κερδίσουν την προστασία του Θεού και να ζήσουν ευτυχισμένοι. Μόνο με την παρηγοριά των λόγων του Θεού μπόρεσαν η μητέρα και οι κόρες να βγουν από τον πόνο και την αδυναμία τους. Η Γουένια βίωσε πραγματικά την αγάπη και το έλεος του Θεού. Αισθάνθηκε τελικά τη ζεστασιά ενός σπιτιού και μπήκε σε ένα πραγματικό σπίτι...

Why build an automotive museum? Because one way or another, our lives are touched by the automobile. We remember our parents’ cars, the ones we traveled in with family, the ones we borrowed for our first car date, the first ones we bought. The fast cars, the junkers, the modified ones and the ones we rebuilt—all of them are tied to us in memory. We even dream of cars.

 

William E. Backer, former owner of Backer Potato Chip Company in Fulton, Missouri, looked back in time and found that a vintage automobile was a thing of fascination. His memories were of old country roads and two lane highways. Bill Backer was an engineer and a builder who loved to tinker. Having built a successful potato chip company, he looked back at the cars that were part of his childhood. Shortly after, he owned a Canadian 1924 Dodge Touring. Dark blue with black fenders and a cloth top. Bill drove his family around the back country roads of Callaway County, Missouri and felt himself touching fading memories.

 

Not long after he collected the Dodge, Bill had a 1909 Ford Model T. Soon after that, a 1930 Model A. Then a 1929 Cord, a 1931 Rolls Royce Phantom II, a 1957 Chevy Bel Air, and so on. By the mid 1990’s, the number of classic autos in the collection neared 100. Bill found a home for many of his classic cars in an old retail building in Fulton. The Auto World Museum Foundation was formed and a classic car museum was opened to the public. Ten years later, in 2006, the automobile museum was moved to its current home at 200 Peacock Drive in Fulton. It is a building dedicated to the history of vintage and modern automobiles as well as the history of Callaway County and Fulton, Missouri.

 

After his passing in 2008, his daughter, Vicki McDaniel, assumed leadership of the museum and the collection of cars. Since then, the collection of vintage autos has changed a little. However, her primary passion is for the presentation of antique cars and modern ones in a place that everyone can visit.

 

The presentation of cars and staging of the museum is the vision of Tom K. Jones, Artistic Director of TKJ Designs in Fulton, Missouri. His concept for the museum was a movement through time and a portrayal of the history of Callaway County, Missouri. Auto World Museum is a stage—a movement through history. Its deep black curtains, scenes from back when, panels of advertising and memorabilia will take you through a history of motion in time. At first, you will visit a period not that long ago, although some say 100 years is a long time. As you move in a clockwise direction through the museum, you will find enticing displays. The simplicity of family drives in the convertible. The decadence of Hollywood and its fancy cars. The sights and sounds of the drive-in as you watched from the comfort of your Studebaker or Corvair. You will ponder when gas prices were really, really low. Finally, you will find yourself nearing the future, with displays of alternative fuel vehicles.

 

Auto World Museum will spark your curiosity. We hope that you will find that our collection of vintage and modern automobiles fascinates you the way that it did Bill Backer. We hope you will continue the journey with us as we add to the collection over time. We would like to thank William Harrison for his dedication to the research on the autos in the museum.

Rottura dell’accerchiamento di Satana

  

di Zhao Gang, Cina

 

Faceva un freddo pungente lo scorso novembre nel nordest della Cina: la neve che cadeva al suolo non si scioglieva e molte persone che camminavano per le strade avevano così freddo che si tenevano le mani sotto le ascelle e procedevano con cautela, col corpo incurvato in avanti. L’altro giorno di mattina presto il vento soffiava da nordovest quando io, mio cognato e sua moglie e una dozzina di fratelli e sorelle eravamo seduti a casa mia sul letto caldo. Ognuno aveva con sé una Bibbia e teneva in mano una copia del libro delle parole di Dio intitolato “Il giudizio comincia dalla casa di Dio”. Due sorelle della Chiesa di Dio Onnipotente stavano tenendo una comunicazione sulla verità riguardante le tre fasi dell’opera di Dio. Durante la comunicazione le due sorelle tracciavano un quadro delle tre fasi dell’opera: “L’opera di Dio per la salvezza dell’umanità si può suddividere in tre fasi. Dall’Età della Legge all’Età della Grazia e poi all’Età del Regno, ogni fase dell’opera è più elevata e più profonda della precedente. Quella compiuta negli ultimi giorni è la fase finale dell’opera, in cui Dio esprime parole per giudicare e purificare l’uomo…” Noi annuivamo ascoltando e il nostro cuore si colmava di luce: chi avrebbe pensato che il piano di gestione di Dio per la salvezza dell’umanità racchiudesse tanti misteri! A parte Dio Stesso, chi altri potrebbe parlare così chiaramente dei misteri di queste tre fasi dell’opera di Dio? Questa è veramente l’opera di Dio! La comunicazione è proseguita fino alla sera del giorno seguente, e tutto il nostro gruppo ha espresso la volontà di ricercare ed esaminare l’opera di Dio Onnipotente degli ultimi giorni.

 

Dopo di che le due sorelle hanno tenuto una comunicazione sulla verità riguardante il significato dell’incarnazione di Dio, e tutti noi stavamo ascoltando attentamente quando, tutt’a un tratto, è arrivata Wang Ping, capo della nostra Chiesa. Non appena entrata in casa, ha puntato il dito contro le due sorelle della Chiesa di Dio Onnipotente e mi ha domandato: “Che ci fanno qui queste due?” Ho risposto francamente: “Queste sono la sorella Zhang e la sorella Mu…” Ma prima ancora che finissi di parlare, mi ha detto con tono esasperato: “Chi sono la sorella Zhang e la sorella Mu? Vedo che sono predicatrici del Lampo da Levante, sono ladre di pecorelle…” Quando Wang Ping ha finito di parlare, siamo tutti rimasti lì seduti sconvolti. Ho pensato: “La sorella Wang Ping ha parlato quasi sempre di amare il prossimo come noi stessi e di amare i propri nemici; come mai oggi viene qui a dire cose tanto irragionevoli? Perché giudica e condanna queste due sorelle?” Riflettevo su queste cose quando ho sentito la sorella Zhang dire pacatamente a Wang Ping: “Sorella, non ci sono secondi fini nella nostra presenza qui oggi. Il Signore Gesù è già ritornato. Vogliamo soltanto comunicarvi il Vangelo di Dio degli ultimi giorni…” Wang Ping ha interrotto la sorella Zhang gridando: “Il Signore è ritornato? Nemmeno quanti di noi hanno la funzione di capi sanno niente del ritorno del Signore, e allora come fate a saperlo voi? Non è possibile! Il Signore Gesù ha detto: ‘Tutti quelli che sono venuti, sono stati ladri e briganti; ma le pecore non li hanno ascoltati’ (Giovanni 10:8). Dovete andarvene tutte e due subito e non tornare mai più”. Quando ho udito Wang Ping dire così, interiormente ho provato disgusto: i suoi sermoni sono di solito tanto ragionati e ben argomentati; come mai tutt’a un tratto si dimostra così priva di compassione? Allora ho domandato a Wang Ping: “Sorella Wang, è tardi. Dove vuoi che vadano? Il Signore ci insegna che dobbiamo amare i nostri nemici, per non parlare di queste due sorelle che credono in Dio. Se trattiamo loro due in questo modo, non assomiglieremo affatto a credenti nel Signore…” Ma prima ancora che potessi concludere quello che stavo dicendo, Wang Ping con impazienza ha preso la mano della moglie di mio cognato e ha detto a lei e al marito: “Se Zhao Gang non vuole che queste due donne se ne vadano, allora ce ne andiamo noi. Non ascoltatele più!” Quindi è uscita furiosamente trascinandosi dietro i due.

 

Quando se ne sono andati, la sorella Mu si è rivolta a noi e ha domandato: “Fratelli e sorelle, che vi sembra della scena di cui siamo appena stati testimoni? Parliamone”. Tutti i fratelli e le sorelle si sono voltati verso di me, senza che nessuno dicesse una parola. Ho detto francamente: “Sorella, tramite la lettura della parola di Dio Onnipotente in questi ultimi due giorni e l’ascolto della tua comunicazione, io credo fermamente che le parole di Dio Onnipotente siano la verità e che Dio Onnipotente sia il ritorno del Signore Gesù. Tuttavia Wang Ping non ha tutti i torti. In fin dei conti, lei è il nostro capo e ha fede nel Signore da tanto tempo. È molto esperta della Bibbia e si è sempre data da fare e si è spesa per il Signore. Se il Signore è ritornato, lei dovrebbe essere la prima a saperlo”. La sorella Zhang ha risposto gentilmente dicendo: “Molti credono che il ritorno di Dio debba essere rivelato prima ai capi che poi ne parlano ai fedeli, ma nelle parole del Signore questo modo di pensare ha forse un reale fondamento? È conforme alla verità e ai dati di fatto dell’opera di Dio? Il Signore Gesù disse: ‘Le Mie pecore ascoltano la Mia voce e Io le conosco, ed esse Mi seguono’ (Giovanni 10:27). ‘Chi ha orecchi ascolti ciò che lo Spirito dice alle Chiese’ (Apocalisse 2:7). Il Signore Gesù ci dice chiaramente che quando arriverà di sicuro pronuncerà delle parole ed esprimerà la verità e tutti coloro che sentono la voce di Dio e poi ricercano e la riconoscono accoglieranno il ritorno del Signore e saranno innalzati al cospetto di Dio. Il Signore ha detto forse che al Suo ritorno avrebbe illuminato qualche capo con la conoscenza del Suo avvento? No. Pertanto questa opinione non fa che fuorviare e confondere le persone, che allora, se aspettano che il Signore le illumini in linea con questa affermazione, stanno ad aspettare passivamente l’avvento della fine. Guardiamo che cosa è detto nelle parole di Dio Onnipotente. Dice Dio Onnipotente: ‘Ancora più persone credono che, qualunque sia l’opera nuova di Dio, debba essere confermata dalle profezie e che in ogni fase di tale opera a tutti coloro che seguono Dio con cuore sincero debbano essere mostrate anche delle rivelazioni, altrimenti l’opera non potrebbe appartenere a Dio. Conoscere Dio è già un compito arduo per l’uomo. Considerando, poi, il cuore irrazionale dell’uomo e la sua natura ribelle fatta di egoismo e presunzione, sarà ancora più difficile che l’uomo accetti l’opera nuova di Dio. L’uomo non esamina l’opera nuova di Dio con cura né la accetta con umiltà; piuttosto, assume un atteggiamento di disprezzo, aspettando le rivelazioni e la guida di Dio. Non è questo il comportamento di un uomo che si ribella e si oppone a Dio? Questi uomini come possono ottenere l’approvazione di Dio?’ (“Come può l’uomo che ha delimitato Dio nelle sue concezioni ricevere le rivelazioni di Dio?” in “La Parola appare nella carne”). Dalle parole di Dio capiamo che, per la questione dell’avvento del Signore, se le persone si attengono ciecamente alle loro concezioni e fantasie e non ricercano la verità e non si concentrano sull’udire la voce di Dio, ma si limitano ad aspettare che Dio le illumini, non potranno mai accogliere il ritorno del Signore. Soltanto coloro che si impegnano nell’ascoltare la voce di Dio sono in grado di accogliere la manifestazione del Signore. In effetti, nemmeno uno di coloro che seguirono il Signore Gesù nell’Età della Grazia fu illuminato da Dio prima che seguisse Gesù. Tutti sentirono qualcun altro testimoniare il Signore Gesù oppure ascoltarono il Signore parlare o tenere un sermone, e Lo seguirono solo dopo avere riconosciuto la voce del Signore. Anche se Pietro ricevette l’illuminazione da parte di Dio e riconobbe nel Signore Gesù il Cristo e il Figlio di Dio, questo avvenne soltanto dopo che ebbe seguito il Signore Gesù per un certo tempo; solo quando giunse ad avere una certa conoscenza del Signore dalle Sue parole e dalla Sua opera ottenne l’illuminazione e la rivelazione dello Spirito Santo: questo è un dato di fatto. Ora, negli ultimi giorni, Dio Onnipotente incarnato esprime la verità e compie l’opera di giudicare, purificare e salvare l’umanità. Molti accolgono e seguono Dio Onnipotente, ma fra loro non ce n’è uno che abbia ottenuto l’illuminazione da parte di Dio prima di seguirLo. Dio è giusto e certamente non favorisce nessuno. Dio Si rallegra delle persone di buon cuore che anelano a ricercare la verità. Proprio come disse il Signore Gesù: ‘Beati quelli che sono affamati e assetati di giustizia, perché saranno saziati’ (Matteo 5:6). ‘Beati i puri di cuore, perché vedranno Dio’ (Matteo 5:8). Dio Onnipotente inoltre ha detto: ‘Dio cerca coloro che anelano alla Sua apparizione. Egli cerca coloro che sono in grado di prestare ascolto alle Sue parole, che non abbiano dimenticato l’assegnazione del Suo compito e Gli offrano il loro cuore e il loro corpo. Cerca coloro che siano obbedienti come bambini nei Suoi confronti, e che non Gli facciano resistenza’ (“Dio sovrintende al destino dell’intera umanità” in “La Parola appare nella carne”). Questo ci fa capire che, se l’uomo ama la verità e ha sete di verità, indipendentemente dal fatto che abbia o no qualche prestigio o da quanto capisca la Bibbia, Dio lo illuminerà e lo guiderà e gli consentirà di udire la Sua voce e di testimoniare la Sua manifestazione. Se coloro che fungono da capi ritengono che Dio al Suo ritorno debba prima illuminare loro, questo indica che non hanno alcuna comprensione dell’opera di Dio e non conoscono l’indole giusta di Dio. Inoltre rivela la loro grande arroganza. Nella parola di Dio Onnipotente è detto: ‘E così dico che coloro che “vedono chiaramente” Dio e la Sua opera sono impotenti, e sono solo arroganti e ignoranti. L’uomo non dovrebbe definire l’opera di Dio; inoltre, non può definirla. Agli occhi di Dio, l’uomo è più piccolo di una formica, perciò come può comprendere l’opera di Dio? Coloro che dicono costantemente “Dio non opera in questo o in quel modo” o “Dio è come questo o come quello”, non sono forse degli arroganti?’ (Introduzione a “La Parola appare nella carne”). L’onnipotenza e la sapienza di Dio sono di una profondità insondabile. Gli esseri umani sono soltanto minuscole creature. La nostra mente e i nostri pensieri sono limitati, e allora come potremmo sondare l’opera del Creatore? Pertanto, in attesa del ritorno del Signore, dobbiamo serbare nel cuore la venerazione per Dio e ricercare ed esaminare attentamente. Non dobbiamo usare le nostre concezioni e fantasie per limitare Dio e giudicarLo arbitrariamente, poiché questo offenderà l’indole di Dio e inoltre pregiudicherà le nostre possibilità di conseguire la vera salvezza”.

 

Dopo aver ascoltato la parola di Dio, ho capito che noi al cospetto di Dio siamo davvero insignificanti, più ancora di una formica. Inoltre siamo stati corrotti da Satana al punto che siamo pervasi dall’indole corrotta dell’arroganza e della presunzione. Amiamo affidarci sempre alle nostre fantasie e concezioni per limitare Dio e, quando l’opera di Dio non è conforme alle nostre concezioni, perfino rinneghiamo Dio, Lo condanniamo e ci opponiamo a Lui. Evidentemente, se l’uomo non capisce la verità e non ha nel cuore nemmeno un briciolo di venerazione per Dio, allora oserà fare tutto ciò che vuole. Ed è una cosa davvero pericolosa! Questo mi ha fatto rammentare ciò che disse il Signore Gesù: “Io Ti rendo lode, o Padre, Signore del cielo e della terra, perché hai nascosto queste cose ai sapienti e agli intelligenti, e le hai rivelate ai piccoli. Sì, Padre, perché così Ti è piaciuto” (Matteo 11:25-26). Soltanto oggi ho capito che le cose stanno veramente così! La rivelazione della parola di Dio e la comunicazione della sorella Zhang mi hanno consentito di riconoscere che questa idea secondo cui “i capi devono essere i primi a essere illuminati riguardo alla conoscenza dell’avvento del Signore al Suo ritorno” è falsa e assurda, proprio non è conforme alla verità e deriva interamente dalle concezioni e fantasie dell’uomo. In realtà, soltanto coloro che hanno sete di verità e ricercano la voce di Dio avranno l’occasione di ricevere l’opera di Dio e la Sua guida e di essere condotti al cospetto di Dio. Questo mi ha offerto una nuova comprensione dell’equità e della giustizia di Dio. Sia ringraziato Dio!

 

La mattina presto del terzo giorno, quando la sorella Zhang e la sorella Mu se n’erano andate, il mio confratello Guan, collaboratore di alto rango della nostra Chiesa, è venuto da me e mi ha domandato: “Fratello Zhao, ho sentito che voi due adesso credete nel Lampo da Levante”. Gli ho risposto con fervore: “Sì, ho accolto l’opera di Dio Onnipotente degli ultimi giorni, perché tramite le parole di Dio Onnipotente sono giunto a capire molte verità che prima non capivo, per esempio i misteri delle tre fasi della Sua opera e il significato dell’incarnazione di Dio. Vedo che le parole di Dio Onnipotente sono ‘Ciò che lo Spirito dice alle Chiese’ come profetizzato nel libro dell’Apocalisse”. Il fratello Guan mi ha guardato e ha detto: “Fratello Zhao, davvero intendi seguire ciò che dicono queste persone? Sai che genere di persone sono?” Ho risposto: “Vedo che tutti hanno una grandiosa natura umana e comunicano molto chiaramente riguardo alla verità. Tutto ciò di cui parlano è in relazione alle verità dell’opera di Dio. In questi ultimi due giorni ho davvero acquisito molto”. Il fratello Guan mi ha detto rabbiosamente: “Come puoi essere così testardo? La Lettera agli Ebrei, 6,6-8, ci dice: ‘E poi sono caduti, è impossibile ricondurli di nuovo al ravvedimento, perché crocifiggono di nuovo per conto loro il Figlio di Dio e Lo espongono a infamia. Quando una terra, imbevuta della pioggia che vi cade frequentemente, produce erbe utili a quelli che la coltivano, riceve benedizione da Dio; ma se produce spine e rovi, è riprovata e prossima a essere maledetta, e la sua fine sarà di essere bruciata’. Tu sei un predicatore, gioisci tanto della grazia del Signore, ma non solo non stai guidando fratelli e sorelle a credere nel Signore, ma anzi li induci ad abbandonare la nostra Chiesa. Non temi di essere punito? Se non torni indietro, perderai la protezione del Signore e non vivrai una vita felice. Le tue malattie precedenti avranno una ricaduta e i tuoi due figli non troveranno un buon lavoro…”

 

Quando il fratello Guan se n’è andato, mi sono sentito piuttosto nervoso e ho pensato: le cose che ha detto sembrano in parte ragionevoli, e allora che devo fare nel caso in cui la mia fede in Dio Onnipotente mi facesse perdere la grazia del Signore? Riflettendo su questo, ho sentito il mio cuore indebolirsi, perciò mi sono affrettato a inginocchiarmi e ho pregato Dio: “Dio Onnipotente! Le parole del fratello Guan mi hanno fatto sentire piuttosto debole. Dio! Le cose che mi ha detto sono effettivamente vere o no? Adesso proprio non so che fare…” Mentre pregavo Dio, è ritornata mia moglie e le ho riferito quello che era appena successo. Nel sentire queste cose, mi ha detto nervosamente: “Davvero ha parlato così?” Ho annuito, e mia moglie ha detto preoccupata: “È un capo importante che crede nel Signore da molti anni ed è esperto della Bibbia. Non penso che dica menzogne. Se davvero succederà come dice lui, che cosa dobbiamo fare?” Proprio in quel momento ho pensato alla verità delle tre fasi dell’opera di Dio su cui avevano tenuto una comunicazione la sorella Zhang e la sorella Mu: l’opera di Dio per la salvezza dell’umanità è suddivisa in tre fasi, ma tutte e tre le fasi dell’opera sono compiute da un unico Dio. Quando ho pensato così, all’improvviso mi è divenuto tutto chiaro e sono sbottato rivolgendomi a mia moglie: “Quello che dice il fratello Guan non mi pare giusto. Dice che accogliendo l’opera di Dio degli ultimi giorni stiamo abbandonando la via del Signore e tradendo il Signore Gesù, ma le parole di Dio Onnipotente che abbiamo letto nei giorni scorsi sono veramente la voce di Dio e Dio Onnipotente è il ritorno del Signore Gesù. Seguendo Dio Onnipotente, in realtà seguiamo le orme dell’Agnello. Siamo noi le vergini sagge. Perché il Signore dovrebbe punirci?” Eravamo nel pieno di una comunicazione a questo riguardo quando sono arrivate la sorella Zhang e la sorella Mu…

 

Mia moglie ha riferito alle sorelle quello che aveva detto il fratello Guan quando era venuto a casa nostra, e la sorella Zhang mi ha domandato come mi sembrasse tutta questa faccenda. Così ho parlato alle sorelle della debolezza che avevo provato e della comprensione che avevo appena raggiunto. La sorella Zhang ha sorriso dicendo: “Sia ringraziato Dio! Questa è una comprensione davvero pura ed è l’illuminazione e la guida di Dio!” Mia moglie ha domandato, confusa: “Siccome noi non ci siamo smarriti, perché il fratello Guan dice queste cose? È un capo importante che crede nel Signore da molti anni!” Ho guardato mia moglie e ho detto: “Vuole soltanto che ritorniamo nella nostra Chiesa precedente!” La sorella Zhang ha sorriso e ha detto: “In questo momento, tutto ciò che possiamo vedere sono le loro apparenze esteriori, ma non abbiamo esaminato la sostanza della loro natura! Il Signore Gesù disse: ‘Ma guai a voi, scribi e farisei ipocriti, perché serrate il Regno dei Cieli davanti alla gente; poiché non vi entrate voi, né lasciate entrare quelli che cercano di entrare’ (Matteo 23:13). ‘Guai a voi, scribi e farisei ipocriti, perché siete simili a sepolcri imbiancati, che appaiono belli di fuori, ma dentro sono pieni d’ossa di morti e d’ogni immondizia’ (Matteo 23:27). A giudicare dalle apparenze esteriori, i farisei erano assai leali nel servire Dio. Nella mente delle persone, i farisei erano servi devoti di Dio ed erano le autorità religiose più degne di fiducia. Però, quando il Signore Gesù venne a compiere la Sua opera, fu rivelata la natura di opposizione a Dio dei farisei. Furono questi farisei a opporsi sfrenatamente e a condannare l’opera del Signore Gesù. Inventarono ogni genere di dicerie e resero falsa testimonianza per ingannare la gente comune. Dicevano che il Signore Gesù scacciasse i demoni tramite Belzebù, il principe dei diavoli. E quando il Signore Gesù risorse tre giorni dopo essere stato crocifisso, corruppero i soldati perché diffondessero dicerie secondo cui il corpo del Signore Gesù sarebbe stato trafugato dai Suoi discepoli, fra l’altro. I farisei inventavano ogni genere di menzogne e usavano tutti i trucchi a loro disposizione per impedire alle persone di ricercare ed esaminare la vera via. Il loro scopo era eliminare l’opera di Dio in modo da poter mantenere per sempre il loro dominio sul popolo eletto di Dio. Anche se esteriormente apparivano devoti, nella sostanza erano degli anticristo che odiavano la verità ed erano nemici di Dio. Nello smascherarli e condannarli, il Signore Gesù disse: ‘Serpenti, razza di vipere, come scamperete al giudizio della geenna?’ (Matteo 23:33). Allora adesso riflettiamo: questi capi religiosi di oggi sono forse diversi dai farisei?” Le sorelle quindi mi hanno chiesto di leggere un brano delle parole di Dio Onnipotente: “Quelli che leggono la Bibbia in grandi chiese, recitano la Bibbia tutti i giorni ma non capiscono lo scopo dell’opera di Dio. Non uno è in grado di conoscere Dio; inoltre, nessuno è in sintonia con il cuore di Dio. Sono tutti uomini meschini e privi di valore, così boriosi da voler insegnare a Dio. Anche se brandiscono il nome di Dio, Gli si oppongono ostinatamente. Anche se si fregiano della definizione di credenti in Dio, sono quelli che mangiano la carne e bevono il sangue dell’uomo. Tutti questi uomini sono diavoli che divorano l’anima dell’uomo, capi demoni che volutamente disturbano coloro che cercano di percorrere la strada giusta, sono pietre di inciampo che impediscono il cammino di quanti cercano Dio. Anche se sono ‘fortemente carnali’, come fanno i loro seguaci a sapere che sono anticristi che guidano l’uomo a opporsi a Dio? Come fanno a sapere che sono diavoli vivi che cercano espressamente anime da divorare?” (“Tutti coloro che non conoscono Dio sono coloro che si oppongono a Dio” in “La Parola appare nella carne”). Le sorelle ci hanno tenuto una comunicazione dettagliata in riferimento a queste parole di Dio, analizzando tutte le azioni dei capi religiosi e la sostanza della loro natura, e alla fine sono giunto a capire che questi capi persistono nell’intralciarci e nell’impedirci di credere in Dio Onnipotente e perfino ci rivolgono minacce e intimidazioni, non per proteggerci, bensì per mantenere il loro dominio sul popolo eletto di Dio, affinché noi li adoriamo e li veneriamo come se fossero Dio. Perciò in realtà sono uguali ai farisei. Sono tutti degli anticristo che odiano la verità e si oppongono a Dio. Dio è venuto a salvarci, ma loro escogitano ogni metodo possibile per impedirci di accogliere l’opera di Dio e di leggere le Sue parole. Così facendo, non ci stanno forse trascinando all’inferno? Sono davvero malevoli! Se non fosse che le parole di Dio Onnipotente rivelano la sostanza di come queste persone si oppongano a Dio e si contendano l’uomo con Dio, mi sarei forse fatto ingannare dai loro trucchi, frustrando la mia possibilità di conseguire la vera salvezza. In quel momento, mia moglie ha detto con stupore: “A quanto pare, loro sono qui per farci del male! Queste persone davvero non molleranno finché non ci avranno trascinati all’inferno! Non crederò più a quello che dicono”.

 

La sorella Mu allora ci ha letto un altro brano delle parole di Dio: “In ogni fase dell’opera che Dio compie dentro le persone, esternamente sembra che si tratti di un’interazione tra le persone, come se tutto nascesse da disposizioni o da interferenze umane. Ma dietro le quinte, ogni fase dell’opera e tutto ciò che accade, è una scommessa fatta da Satana davanti a Dio, una scommessa che richiede che le persone rimangano salde nella loro testimonianza di fede a Dio. Considera quando Giobbe è stato messo alla prova, per esempio: dietro le quinte, Satana stava facendo una scommessa con Dio, e ciò che è accaduto a Giobbe era legato alle azioni degli uomini e alla loro interferenza. Dietro ogni passo che Dio compie dentro di voi, vi è la scommessa di Satana con Dio – dietro ogni cosa vi è una battaglia” (“Solo amare Dio vuol dire credere veramente in Dio” in “La Parola appare nella carne”). Quindi la sorella Zhang ha dato inizio alla sua comunicazione: “Dalle parole di Dio vediamo che, qualunque cosa ci accada, anche se esteriormente può sembrare opera dell’uomo, in realtà è Satana che scommette con Dio dietro le quinte. È proprio come quando Giobbe fu tentato da Satana. Sua moglie gli chiedeva di abbandonare Jahvè, ma Giobbe riuscì a capire i trucchi di Satana. Si affidò alla propria fede in Dio e testimoniò Dio, rimproverando sua moglie perché era una donna ignorante e ostinata. Le esperienze di Giobbe ci fanno capire che, quando Dio intende salvare qualcuno, Satana lo tenterà sempre sfrenatamente e lo intralcerà e tirerà fuori tutti i trucchi a sua disposizione per attaccarlo e indurlo ad abbandonare e tradire Dio e in definitiva a perdere la possibilità di conseguire la vera salvezza. Poiché Satana intende dominare e divorare l’uomo per sempre, non vuole proprio che l’uomo consegua la salvezza offerta da Dio”. Anche la sorella Mu ha tenuto una comunicazione: “È vero. Ripetutamente Satana usa i capi perché ci rivolgano attacchi e intimidazioni, allo scopo di indurci a rinnegare Dio, tradirLo e abbandonare la vera via. Questi sono i trucchi di Satana. Dobbiamo riuscire a vedere chiaramente questa lotta che si svolge nel mondo spirituale”. Dopo avere ascoltato la comunicazione delle due sorelle, ho riflettuto per un po’ su queste cose e poi ho detto: “Allora Satana sta facendo una scommessa con Dio, e attraverso le cose che dicono i capi Satana ci attacca dove siamo deboli e vuole che abbandoniamo la vera via e ci allontaniamo da Dio per via della nostra codardia! Satana è davvero infido!” Allora mia moglie ha detto: “Satana è proprio repellente! Se non avessimo ascoltato le parole di Dio e la vostra comunicazione, come avremmo potuto sapere che questa era una macchinazione di Satana?” Ho detto con gioia: “Adesso che capiamo queste cose, dobbiamo affidarci a Dio per rompere l’accerchiamento di Satana, testimoniare Dio e svergognare Satana con le nostre azioni concrete!” La sorella Zhang allora ha detto allegra: “Fratello, sorella, d’ora in poi riuniamoci più spesso per comunicare riguardo alla parola di Dio. Solo in questo modo possiamo attrezzarci con una parte maggiore di verità in modo da essere presto certi dell’opera di Dio degli ultimi giorni e porre le fondamenta della vera via, e allora non saremo più ingannati da tutte quelle dicerie e vere e proprie menzogne di Satana”. Ho detto: “Ottimo! Sarebbe bellissimo se voi poteste venire più spesso a tenere comunicazioni con noi”. La sorella Mu ha sorriso e ha detto: “Allora faremo proprio così”.

 

La mattina presto qualche giorno dopo, mi sono alzato dal letto e guardando fuori dalla finestra ho visto che c’era stata una forte nevicata, e inconsciamente mi sono messo a sfregarmi le mani. Poi ho indossato un berretto di lana e dei guanti di cotone e sono andato in cortile a spazzare la neve. Quando ho finito, sono rientrato e ho aperto il coperchio della stufa per attizzare il fuoco, mentre mia moglie riordinava la casa. In quel momento sono arrivati il fratello maggiore di mia moglie e sua moglie, e mia cognata, appena entrata, ha detto con voce ansiosa: “Il capo Wang e il collaboratore Guan sono venuti qui e hanno parlato tanto con voi, come potete non ascoltarli? Ci hanno chiesto specificamente di venire qui oggi per cercare di nuovo di persuadervi. Non dovete credere più al Lampo da Levante. Sono i nostri capi ad assumersi la responsabilità della nostra vita!” Quando l’ho sentita parlare così, ho detto con fermezza: “Se davvero si assumono la responsabilità della nostra vita, allora dovrebbero guidarci a studiare l’opera di Dio Onnipotente degli ultimi giorni e ad accogliere il ritorno del Signore!” Mia moglie ha quindi detto con franchezza: “Non fanno così per il nostro interesse. Temono che se tutti noi crediamo in Dio Onnipotente non rimarrà più nessuno ad ascoltarli”. Mia cognata si è piuttosto irritata nel sentire queste parole e ha detto: “Come potete voi due dire cose simili? Non vi hanno chiesto di fare altro. Non vogliono forse soltanto che ritorniate nella Chiesa? Ascoltatemi. Pensate che io voglia farvi del male, visto che le nostre famiglie sono così vicine?” Il fratello di mia moglie ha proseguito: “Pensate a come vi ho trattati nel corso degli anni. Sapete quante cose ho fatto per voi? Avete davvero cuore di separarvi da noi? Non vi sentite in colpa?” Nel sentire loro due dire queste cose, mi sono sentito sconvolto e ho pensato: “Davvero ci hanno aiutati molto, e adesso vedono che insistiamo nel seguire Dio Onnipotente. Certo, si sentono profondamente feriti, ma che cosa si può fare? Possono chiedermi di abbandonare la vera via e tradire Dio, ma non posso proprio farlo, perché so che Dio Onnipotente è il ritorno del Signore Gesù. Ma se insisto nel credere in Dio Onnipotente, che cosa penseranno di me? Diranno che sono un ingrato?” In quel momento mi sentivo sconvolto, come se il cuore mi venisse strattonato in due direzioni diverse. In silenzio ho pregato Dio, chiedendoGli di indicarmi una via d’uscita. All’improvviso ho pensato a queste parole di Dio: “Tutto ciò che accade alle persone è segno che Dio ha bisogno che restino salde nella loro testimonianza di fedeverso di Lui” (“Solo amare Dio vuol dire credere veramente in Dio” in “La Parola appare nella carne”). Allora ho ripensato alle parole che mi avevano comunicato alcuni giorni prima la sorella Zhang e la sorella Mu: tutto ciò che ti accade è in relazione con la lotta che si svolge nel mondo spirituale, ed è Satana che fa una scommessa con Dio. Pensavo: “Oggi il fratello di mia moglie e mia cognata hanno cercato di sfruttare la nostra parentela per spingerci a tradire Dio e a ritornare alla religione, ma questo è un trucco di Satana. Se io dovessi tradire Dio per tutelare i miei sentimenti privati, sarebbe una cosa davvero ingrata e indicherebbe che io sono privo di coscienza. Se non voglio deludere mio cognato, devo comunicare il Vangelo di Dio degli ultimi giorni, in modo che abbiano anche loro l’occasione di conseguire la salvezza offerta da Dio. Questo è l’unico modo per mostrare la compassione che dovrei avere”. Mentre pensavo così, il cuore all’improvviso mi si è colmato di luce, e ho detto: “Fratello, cognata, so che voi due siete stati buoni con me, ed è per questo che devo dirvi che Dio Onnipotente è davvero il ritorno del Signore Gesù. Solo seguendo l’opera di Dio Onnipotente degli ultimi giorni potremo conseguire la salvezza offerta da Dio! Altrimenti la nostra fede nel Signore in tutti questi anni sarà stata vana e noi non otterremo niente! Ecco, permettetemi di leggervi un brano delle parole di Dio, e quando l’avrete ascoltato saprete se queste parole sono la verità o no e se sono o non sono i discorsi di Dio”. Ho preso il mio libro delle parole di Dio e stavo per mettermi a leggere, quando mia cognata si è alzata di scatto e ha detto sconfortata: “Siamo venuti qui oggi per cercare di persuadervi, ma anziché cambiare idea cercate perfino di comunicarci questo Vangelo, ma noi non vi ascolteremo”. Detto questo, è uscita incollerita, trascinando via il marito.

 

Li ho seguiti in cortile fino all’ingresso, ma ho visto che si erano già allontanati. Sentendomi smarrito, sono rimasto lì scrollando il capo. In quel momento ho visto che il cielo si era rischiarato e che fuori nel cortile una luce calda investiva un pino. La neve che si era accumulata sul pino ha cominciato a sciogliersi, come se proprio in quel momento l’albero fosse stato battezzato. In contrasto col terreno ricoperto di neve, l’albero alto e diritto appariva particolarmente verdeggiante. Mi sono sentito molto felice, come se, al pari del pino, anch’io fossi stato battezzato col vento e con la neve e fossi cresciuto col nutrimento del sole. Sapevo che le parole di Dio mi avevano guidato a rompere questo accerchiamento e a testimoniarLo. Sia ringraziato Dio Onnipotente!

Cuenta la leyenda, que a principios del siglo IX en un bosque llamado Libredón, una estrella guió a un hombre llamado Paio hasta el lugar donde en el siglo I se habían enterrado los restos del Apóstol Santiago el Mayor, que habían sido trasladados desde Jerusalem tras su martirio en una barca de piedra. Poco tiempo después del descubrimiento de la Tumba, la sede episcopal asentada en Iria (Padrón) se trasladó a Compostela. El hallazgo del Sepulcro fue la base sobre la que se cimentó la ciudad.

IGLESIA

Los arquitectos que trabajaron en la iglesia fueron el portugués Mateo López, que se encargó de las primeras trazas; el granadino Bartolomé Fernández Lechuga, que construye la magnífica cúpula nervada y organiza el espacio interior consiguiendo una gran majestuosidad; el salmantino Peña y Toro, que se encarga de las obras de contención pues habían cedido los muros, y finalmente, fray Tomás Alonso y fray Gabriel Casas, con distintas aportaciones en la fachada del monasterio, claustros, campanario y dependencias monacales. Sobre la puerta se despliega una vistosa fachada plateresca. Presiden en la parte central, entre la puerta y el óculo, la Virgen, San Bieito y San Bernardo, mientras que en el frontón que corona la portada está San Martiño repartiendo su capa con un pobre. Las torres se levantan sólo hasta la altura de la fachada, debido a la oposición del cabildo catedralicio, temeroso de que la basílica perdiese visibilidad. Para vencer el desnivel del terreno, el benedictino Plácido Camiña construyó la hermosa escalera de acceso a la puerta, sin duda inspirada en la que da acceso a la Catedral desde la fachada del Obradoiro. El templo posee planta de cruz latina con tres naves en el brazo principal y una en el transversal, recorridas por una tribuna. Se emplea la bóveda de cañón en la que se enmascaran los nervios a modo de falsos casetones. Varias capillas comunicadas entre sí, se abren a cada lado del brazo longitudinal. En el interior llama poderosamente la atención el fastuoso retablo mayor de estilo barroco diseñado por F. de Casas y Novoa y ejecutado por Romay.
